Laurel snyder's Interests
|
| General | Almost everything. | | Music | Singers with a little banjo in the soul. And a little accordian. And a 'lectric gee-tar. And harmonies that wobble. Also Bruce Springsteen, Leonard Cohen, Otis Redding, old girl groups. | | Movies | Oh, I'm not picky. | | Television | Too much. We have to make rules around here to keep me away from the TV. | | Books | Stegner, Salinger, Waugh, Berryman, Steinbeck, Simic, Salamun, Bishop, Yeats, Blake, Thurber, Lewis, Kundera, Eager, Dahl... | | Heroes | People who give up comfort for the truth. People who do hard work in the world, even when it costs them. And then the entertainers. Too many to count. Anyone who ever made real art. |

About me:
I'm a children's author, which is about the most fun job in the universe (with the possible exception of "mom"). I also write essays, poems, and the occasional radio commentary. When I practice the guitar (badly) I sing with an embarassing pretend twang. I cannot garden. I'm ruthlessly honest... And for daily rants and more about me (and my books), you can visit me at JewishyIrishy.com, LaurelSnyder.com, or KidLiterary.blogspot.com!

Who I'd like to meet:
Old friends who seem like new friends, New friends who seem like old friends, Kids who seem like grownups, Grownups who seem like kids,Moms who don't seem like moms, and anyone who likes books!.
