I wrote about American Idol last night for the AV Club.

Then you can come see me at Story Studio in Chicago, co-leading a talk on Shameless Self-Promotion: How to Market Your Writing with Johanna Stein and the inimitable James Kennedy.

Then Wednesday, May 12, I'll be hosting another Funny Ha-Ha at the Hideout, from 7-8:30. So far on tap we've got Mark Bazer, Schadenfreude, Jacob Knabb, Samantha Irby and Steve Gadlin. It'll be a hoot and a holler! More details to come.
