Back in August, my friend Lily and I spent a week being the guest interviewers over at Gothamist. We had some fun doing that first round (here are the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 links for the originals), so when TPTB at the ever-expanding Gothamist empire asked us to be one of five rotating interview people/teams, we said, Sure, why not.
So we’ve got this week, and we’ll have another week in December, and another week in January and maybe a week in February, but I haven’t actually checked the calendar, so we may be bypassing shorty. Anyway, today’s interview is with Jason Eaton, a really funny guy who writes children’s books. If you read Lloyd Grove’s Lowdown in The Daily News, you may have heard of Jason; last week after the election, he (unsuccessfully, and not exactly seriously) tried to sell his US citizenship on eBay (second item). Make sure to read the whole thing, because his “New York Story” is fantastic.
