Susanna Kleeman is coming back today at 12pm SLT. Folks know that I simply LOVE her novel “TWICE” and in fact will have read it twice by showtime. What a great craftsperson Susanna is, but the plot of total paranoia, century old conspiracies, complete surveillance: please have Terry Gilliam make the movie version?

Anyways: Susanna’s next book will be about dating and we shall talk about that too. Matter of fact I have been on her YouTube program “Fatal Dates” and we argued quite a bit about what constitutes reality.

I will not pretend that I am as familiar with French philosopher Jean Baudrillard (who will apparently be the source for some good/bad/ugly dating tips in her upcoming non-fiction book), but I would say I know a thing or two about the distinction between physical and digital worlds …

So looking forward to sparring with Mrs Kleeman once again!
