Does anyone else here like David Sedaris? I don't really know much about him (well apart from what's in his books!) I picked up Dress Your Family In Corduroy and Denim randomly in a 2nd hand bookshop, mainly because I liked the title. I'm reading Me Talk Pretty One Day at the moment and just read the chapter on his creative writing class, very funny.
I really can't read fiction anymore, I'm addcited to biographical writing, must be cos I'm such a nosy person

I'm a big fan as well. I actually got a chance to see him do a reading in person a few months ago which was a huge thrill. The best part was the Q and A after the reading. Mainly because the questions asked were so dumb and his responses were classic. Fan- "What's Amy doing? We love Amy!" David "What's Amy doing RIGHT NOW? How should I know?"
He also talked about how his publishing company wants him to write a full on novel (not short stories) and he doesn't think his natural writing style will ever allow him to.

ah i love him. naked is hilarious.

Yup. He's great. I've read Dress Your Family In Corduroy And Denim, Barrel Fever, and Me Talk Pretty One Day.
