So inaugurates this, my first-time blogging experience. Please, bear with me while I get my cyber-legs and head off along the superhighway sidewalk.

PEN was gracious enough to accept my offer to record some of the happenings around town and I'm pretty damn happy they did. I get to attend some incredibly interesting discussions with some pretty damn amazing writers, like Ian McEwan, Jeff Eugenides, and Bernhard Schlink.

I'll keep you posted here, on my blog, about what I heard, what I thought I heard, what I might have thought I heard I heard, etc.

Until then,
David
