    • “The key to writing is learning to differentiate private interest from public entertainment.” - David Foster Wallace

    Currently reading Although of Course You End Up Becoming Yourself by David Lipsky about his road trip with DFW immediately following the publication of Infinite Jest.  So. Damn. Good.  It exposes in casual conversations the raw, slightly damaged side of DFW, but more importantly the philosophies and criteria that guided his work.  Highly recommended.
