We're staying with David Fisher, Kevin's colleague. David has a very hot, very high-force shower. This was much appreciated this morning. Last night I was so exhausted that I felt sick, which made it hard to fall asleep. But eventually did, and I woke up early, so slept about six hours. Enough, but the shower definitely helped. Busy schedule today:
- 10:00 coffee with Radhika of Breakthrough TV and Preeti of Thresh dance troupe, about collaborating on a book launch party in NY
- find a cafe with wifi and revise last chapters of book, dangit
- 1:00 lunch with agent Bob
- 3:00 meeting with Marjorie, Bob, and new publicist Michael
- 4:00 or so coffee with Leah, Marjorie's assistant
- after that, if she's free, coffee with Marian, old friend
- sometime in here, dinner? or put dinner off until later...
- 7:00 possibly attend Abha Dawesar reading in Soho for Babyji, new S. Asian novel with lesbian protagonist
- maybe dinner
Tomorrow morning, Kevin and I take the train to Connecticut to visit my parents, so today's really the only day for seeing folks. Maybe I should come to New York more often.
