This I Believe

I'm working right now and just did the most charming story on NPR's last This I Believe essay. It's by Amy Tam, one of my favorite writers, on ghosts.

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=103412215

It would be great to wait about 1hour to actually listen to her tell it instead of reading it. Also, the full audio includes a little discussion about Tan's membership in a science group and many of the scientists' secret belief in ghost.

I felt I had to share this one, not because it's topical for our group but I joined an audio book club this week and have been listening to Stephen King's memoir, On Writing, in which in he talks about he and Tan and other writers' rock band. Sometimes work is so much fun.

Happy Sunday, y'all! :)
