I served on a panel over the summer with Kevin Smokler and found him to be one of the most interesting, intelligent, funny people I'd ever met. It was my loss - and technology's fault - when he came back through Chicago months later and I missed having dinner with him again.

Kevin comments on the JT LeRoy hub-bub and brings up the exact same thing I thought of when the LeRoy and James Frey stories broke the other day. Most of you kids won't even remember Kaycee Nicole but back then ... woo. Whatta Internet drama that was.

As an aside, you all should go and pick up Kevin's book. It's fabulous, so is he. I'm such a fan girl.
