The walking tour guides one through the city's various landmarks, reciting bits of information the listener might find enlightening. I learned, for example, that in the late 1500s my little neighborhood square was a popular spot for burning people alive. Now lined with a row of small shops, the tradition continues, though in a figurative rather than literal sense.

His embarassment would have pleased me, but once he recovered, there would be that awkward period that sometimes culminates in a handshake. I didn't want to touch these people's hands or see things from their point of view, i just wanted to continue hating them. So i kept my mouth shut and stared off into space.

I think it just has to do with getting older and getting better at what it was i was doing, and that i could take something small and kind of take my time with it. I think actually what that has to do with is i quit drinking. Before that i told myself i could only drink if i was - if i was writing, i had to be drinking. So i was on a timer, because eventually you get too drunk to write.

When you go to that other country you realize that in france and in england, you don't ask somebody what they do for a living when you meet someone. A lot of the obvious things, the shortcuts we take in america - in america you can talk about money all you want. You can ask how much they make, rent they pay, how much their house costs and how much their car costs, and they'll feel comfortable telling you. But it's scandalous to ask anyone in england or france a question like that.

God was someone i wound up turning over and over in my mind each night... Was he punishing me with this meal or was he rewarding me? Did he actively watch me or take me for granted like a fish you don't notice until it's floating on the surface of the tank?

We're not unique in our family. We're more ambitious but we're not special. I'm not funnier than anyone else in my family; it's just that we wanted more than raleigh, north carolina, had to offer. If my brother wanted more than raleigh had to offer, you would know his name. My sister lisa has a really unique and different voice, but she doesn't want that. She's a fine writer, but never said, "i want a book. I want that kind of attention."

'ol'-fashioned skull boil at five p.M.

I'm friends with a lot of writers and so many of them say how much they hate signings and how they leave after a certain period of time. But what is so hard about sitting there while people tell you how much they love you? And if you don't like it, well, learn to like it. I try to take one person at a time. I never look down the line to see how many more people are left. And i always try to make people talk about something besides whatever they planned to say.

The only bright spot in the entire evening was the presence of kevin "tubby" matchwell, the eleven-year-old porker who tackled the role of santa with a beguiling authenticity. The false beard tended to muffle his speech, but they could hear his chafing thighs all the way to the north pole.
