Welcome to Sunday Stealing. This feature originated and published on WTIT: The Blog. Here we will steal all types of questions from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent questions. Cheers to all of us thieves.
1. if someone wanted to really understand you, what would they read, watch, and listen to?
A Harlan Coben book, Monk, and a Lawsuit recording. Also watch Rachel Maddow, to get how I feel about the world these days.
2. have you ever found a writer who thinks just like you? if so, who?
Since I mostly read crime dramas and (auto)biographies, I don't know if there is a writer who thinks just like I do. I'd like to think that Steinbeck and I have things in common, but I dunno.
