My first novel pulls back the curtains on what it's like to be an editor-in-chief whose iconic magazine gets taken over by a celebrity. Hey, it happened to me.
Welcome, friends—
In June I have a new book: Slouching Toward Adulthood: Observations from the Not-So-Empty Nest. Millions of American parents have sent their kids to college only to have them ricochet home with diplomas in one hand and DVR remotes in the other. Mom and Dad now sit down to dinner every night, wondering why their fully grown kids are joining them or, more likely, grunting good-bye as they head out for another night of who knows what.
I lived through this stage and decided to explore what lies behind the current generation’s unwillingness—or inability—to take flight. For more than a year, I spoke with both frustrated parents and equally frustrated “adultescents”—a term coined by my son, Jed.
My publisher calls the book, “witty and insightful…a provocative, razor-sharp but heartfelt cri de coeur.” With me as your sherpa, I invite you to consider my observations on how adultescents, overwhelmed by choice, seek and find adventure, here and abroad; move back home because they have no way to make rent; crave attention and often cash from parents, whom they frequently ask to help them move from place to place; create a mess; rack up debt; imbibe in Mad Men cocktails and the occasional prescription Rx; get jobs only to quit them to start businesses and do good—and more.
Slouching Toward Adulthood will be published in mid-June, but I’d love it if you pre-order now from Amazon and be one of the first to get a national conversation going on what is clearly a fascinating and often troubling major trend. Thanks!
Meanwhile, I’m feverishly finishing my fourth novel. My others—The Late, Lamented Molly Marx; Little Pink Slips and With Friends Like These -- are all available. Plenty of links on this website. Hope you’ll read!
Life is full!
