  • Review: Zen Confidential


    — Authority Authority:
    Zen Confidential by Jack Haubner My rating:          Memoir Zen Confidential  is one mans account of monastic life, told in a thoroughly "un-monastic" style.

  • Immortal Bird by Doron Weber


    — Authority Authority:
    I have struggled with what to say about this book for the past couple of days. It is not that I am having trouble organizing my thoughts, but that my thoughts fall squarely into two categories. I am having trouble rectifying these two, rather disparate, groups of thoughts. To fully explain the quandary that I am in, I ...

  • In your post about traveling & your family, you refer to your mother as your "birth mother" and I was just wondering why? Is it because she died when you were young and you never really knew her as anything other than your birth mom? Or was there some sor


    — Authority Authority:
    Good question. That’s what we’ve always called her. I was only two and a half when she died, so while she was my everything, my primary caretaker, and by all accounts, a superb and doting mom — I’ve never known her. I would feel weird calling her simply ‘my mom’ — in fact, I always did. (When I was ...

    — Authority Authority:
    Hello! You’re so sweet to ask. Let’s see … I’ve been to a lot of places (but never enough). There was a long time, more than a decade, that I didn’t stay in the same city for more than two consecutive years — and then I discovered New York, and here I have stayed since October 2006. It satisfies my ...

  • The morning after


    — Authority Authority:
    It was the eighties, so maybe Ed Edwards* was a cokehead. He definitely was an alcoholic, with the way he put away beer and wouldn’t show up for work, sometimes without warning, or he would call, his voice distant through the car phone connection, to tell me he was running late. Maybe I’d see him, maybe I ...

    — Authority Authority:
    Trinity College Library  (via  thillythenny ) One of my alma matters and even more stunning in person.* It’s not in use as an active library — but there is an impossibly romantic stone staircase at the far end that leads to special archives, where I researched my dissertation.

  • Putting your LIFE out there


    — Authority Authority:
    A few weeks ago I wrote about writing a memoir when the memories are fresh. That was before the physical books arrived for distribution.
