Bio

I write the GTT column for The New York Times and the Drop Everything List for Texas Monthly. My culture and arts reporting and criticism has appeared in the Austin American-Statesman, Rolling Stone, The Texas Observer, and The Village Voice, etc. I am formerly an editorial staffer at L.A. Weekly. I live with my wife, daughter, dog, and cat in Austin, Texas. By day, I work at the O. Henry Museum.

Here I am listening to Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips (left) talk about something very important
