Oh my God, I didn't know about Lynda Obst. I'm so sad. We were both speakers at the Frankfurt Book Fair about 10 years ago, and I just thought she was so amazing. We shared a few meals, and she told me all about Flashdance, etc., and she was just so smart in so many ways. Including philosophy. I think she majored in it. She liked to sneak a smoke after dinner. I liked her orneriness, in life and thought.
Love Bronwyn, love Chicken Shop Date, and love this entire post
Same!
Thank you, Ali!

Oh, I love that and now I have an image of you two shooting the shit and being brilliant together. She was a real one.
Please tell Bronwyn to get two llamas. They are pack animals; one would get horribly depressed without a same-species friend.
