Special Saturday post, thanks to my MSN Movies interviews with Rashida Jones, co-writer and star of the very good Celeste and Jesse Forever, and Tom Skerritt, co-star of the newly dimensionalized Top Gun … and, far more importantly to me, one-time skipper of the Nostromo. And you thought Bruce Greenwood saw action.
And while we’re on the subject: I know, I know, I don’t blog as much as I used to. But honestly, does anyone? I keep up a fairly constant Twitter stream, so the blog is seeming less and less vital. (And I don’t have as much time to work on personal essays these days, which was another thing the blog did really well.)
These days, I just use it to alert you faithful readers to new pieces. Which I also do on Twitter. So while I have no plans to abandon this blog any time soon, I’m just letting y’all know that you can find most of my content elsewhere, and more speedily.
Also: Elsewhere, And More Speedily is also the name of my upcoming YA novel about a terminally ill teenager who finds love with her therapist, who’s also a werewolf.
… and now I want to tweet that. You can see the problem, right?
I’ve tried to follow people on Twitter, but I honestly can’t comprehend the point or the appeal of anything to do with the site.
