The adventures of an urbane bar-hopping transplant to New York.

I'm a storyteller in the New York area who is a regular on NPR's "This American Life" and at shows around the city. Moved to New York in 2006 and am working on selling a memoir of my years as a greeting card writer, and (as a personal, noncommercial obsession) a nonfiction book called "How to Love God Without Being a Jerk." My agent is Adam Chromy at Artists and Artisans. If you came here after hearing about my book on "This American Life" and Googling my name, the "How to Love God" book itself isn't in print yet, and may not even see print in its current form (I'm focusing on humorous memoir), but here's a sample I've posted in case you're curious anyway: Sample How To Love God Introduction, Pt. 1 of 3. Or just look through the archives for September 18, 2007.) The book you should be expecting is the greeting card book, about which more information is pending. Keep checking back!

Friend a Sickly Dave!

Woke up feeling sick--achy muscles all over is bad, right?--so I'm staying in today. However, this means I'll be online and (possibly) watching movies for at least tonight and possibly tomorrow. How can you help? By friending me on Netflix! (I'm Wordboy Dave; please explain who you are if I can't tell from the name or the picture). It'll help turn the arid experience of knocking off yet another classic into something a trifle more communal and happy. Thanks!

With any luck, I'll also get writing done like I generally plan. But this doesn't feel like a particularly lucky day. (Which reminds me: I need to buy Dran-0. Eesh.)

Liquid Plummer (love the spelling) works better . . . for clogs--only for clogs.
