Vermonter. Retired Marine. Settled in SoCal. Big fan of books, Bigfoot, baseball, and being grateful.
Love this interview with the great Willy Vlautin by @valarie.bsky.social. This is her third time interviewing him, and it shows, both in how well she knows Vlautin's work and in their subtle rapport. After this interview he told her, "Thanks for being so cool." www.orartswatch.org/rescue-party...
