Stuff I didn't write

Over the past year, I've been lucky enough to work with some of the best writers in Dallas on a series of  essays for The Dallas Morning News.  Tom Huang has been overall series editor. Some of those pieces we've collaborated on have included:

• Ben Fountain on What Haiti Means to Dallas' Soul and on Dallas poet Robert Trammell. 
• Willard Spiegelman on  Thanksgiving and the Booker T. Washington Magnet School for the Arts.
• Alex Lemon on creativity and fatherhood. (Alex has become a regular contributor to the books pages as well. Here's his latest review, of Antonya Nelson's "Bound.")

Meanwhile, News editor Bob Mong has graciously mentioned me in his weekly column to readers for my work with the books pages and for my work as health editor. Thanks, Bob.
