A clip from our SWF panel has been posted on the ABC Fora website as part of the upcoming previews section. The clip shows Kate Crawford (I'm next to her) speaking about DFW's journalism. Enjoy.
On another note, still writer's fest related, I've been thinking about a lot about my response to question from the audience about what I think happens at the end of the story Girl with Curious Hair. I found myself not wanting to give a specific answer, but it's probably more correct to say I was uncomfortable answering. I think I said I didn't really want to think about the implications of where the story was headed in that final scene.
I wish I'd also said what I thought about while the next question was being asked, which was, I get the feeling that what Sick Puppy does is not really the point. Maybe not knowing exactly what he does in minute detail (à la Bret Easton Ellis. Whose work we know DFW was not particularly fond of, and I get the feeling the tone of this story is in part response to) is the point. Could that be the point? I'm still not sure. Thanks for the question if you are reading. Clearly I've not yet been able to let it go. Which means I'll likely pick up the story again soon.
