Gish Jen's Blog - Posts Tagged "tiger-writing"

Forgive me, readers! I've only just started to figure out how to use Goodreads, and now I am already bowing out, at least on certain fronts. I think you'll understand why. Having agreed to judge the National Book Award for fiction this year, I can't be sharing my opinions of books here.

I may still post other stuff from time to time, though. I do have a story in the Best American Short Stories of 2013, for example, related to which there may be things to share in the fall.

And my new book, TIGER WRITING, is out now, too, so perhaps I will post things related to that. Starting with my new website -- www.gishjen.com -- just live as of today! Lots of news there, as well as my events schedule.

Someday I am going to know how to post events properly. In the meanwhile, I'm just going to post my West Coast tour schedule for TIGER WRITING here. I'm really excited about it, especially as I am bringing my daughter with me. I remember early book tours up and down the coast with a nursing baby, a teething baby, a crying baby... stressful! This is going to be completely different -- a real pleasure both in the bookstores and out. Can't wait.
