The news went public today, so now I can spill!

My next book (well, after this book) will be called Human Touch. It's non-fiction, a combination of music criticism, biography and memoir, based around a mix-tape of 14 Bruce Springsteen songs. It's going to be published by Greystone/Douglas & McIntyre, fall 2011.

And, because you are my tribe: the manuscript is due in five days and there aint no way it's gonna be done.

Congratulations!

5 days? Ahahahaha! Not to laugh too much, but non-writers always ask where inspiration comes from. The answer is deadlines.
