I loved doing an interview with Nicole Adler for her Youtube show, “The No-No show.” Nicole played Lena in a stage production of my story “Eternal Love” in San Francisco a couple years ago. You can watch the interview here.
I’ll be teaching a fiction workshop July 14-19 2026 in Paris through Writing Workshops! Robert Anthony Siegel will be teaching the nonfiction workshop, and Ramona Ausubel a generative workshop. You can find out more and apply here.
