CHIT CHAT AND (EMO) GIRL TALK
I can’t tell you how flattered I was when the lovely Martina Butler from the Emo Girl Talk podcast asked me to be on her show. I must’ve been blushing for a week straight! We gabbed all about how babe-a-licious Jesse Lacey is and the best way to break into the book biz. The interview is live and streaming so take a trip over there and hear me pretend to know what I’m talking about.
In other news of self-promotion, one of my besties was in NYC last weekend and she sent me the most amazing pictures from Urban Outfitters. I mean, I knew they were selling Wish You Were Here online but I had NO idea it was hitting store shelves. Take that, Chuck Klosterman!
Thankfully, my friend Jessica was able to spot the spine. Here she is, maxing and relaxing while showing off that Stanford education. Isn’t she a beaut? Sorry, fellas… She’s taken!!
All in all, it’s been a pretty hectic week. I just got back from Cleveland last night, where I drowned myself in bridal awesomeness (for my bestie Lesley) and parental hangs. The trip was way too short, but it was super-nice to get a break from the Los Angeles June gloom. As soon as I landed, I hoofed it back to my apartment just in time to book it to see A Camp at the Troubador. It was amaaaaaaaaazing!! I have, like, the biggest girl crush on Nina Persson and just being in her presence made me feel like a “Lovefool.” (Yeah, I totally went there.)
The band just put out their second album, Colonia, not too long ago and it’s super-fantastic awesome. Here’s one of my fave songs, “Stronger Than Jesus.” Take a listen and let me know what you think! (Warning: Nina Persson is so pretty, it might be hard to look at her for more 30 seconds at a time. If this is the case, feel free to close your eyes and zone out.)
Excellent Tips! I’ve also found such interesting and useful information on how to be Emo girl in another blog site. The posts provide great tips on various other interesting topics.
