Our peripatetic author Nathaniel Popkin is featured on yet another podcast, in addition to the ones listed in our previous post.

His latest appearance is on Gil Roth's fascinating The Virtual Memories Show. Here he talks not only about his novel Everything Is Borrowed -- which Roth characterizes as "the anti-Fountainhead" -- but also about the Writers Resist movement, his new co-edited anthology Who Will Speak for America?, his longtime involvement with Hidden City Daily, his contribution to the spectacular photography book Philadelphia: Finding the Hidden City, and more.

At one point he remarks that writers have to delude themselves about their own importance and originality. Do you agree?

He also notes the flourishing literary scene in Philadelphia -- not that we're deluding ourselves, of course.

Our tireless author Nathaniel Popkin has done a host of recent interviews and podcasts about his novel Everything Is Borrowed. Here are some links to check out.

As readers of The Speed of Clouds already know, author novelist Miriam Seidel has a wide range of other interests and talents: art, art criticism, design, music, science...

On July 21 she'll combine two of her passions and vocations when she gives a combined reading and gallery tour at The Center for Art in Wood, 141 N. 3rd Street, Philadelphia, 2:00-3:30 p.m. The occasion is the closing reception for Connie Mississippi: Circle of Time, an exhibition Miriam curated. First she'll read from The Speed of Clouds -- probably the hilarious scene that takes place at an art opening -- and then she'll take visitors on a guided tour of the exhibition.
