we'll never have weddings

and now, a non-sequiter...  I am also a wedding officiant.


If you want a wedding that is cheap and as weird as you want it to be, contact me.  I can marry you legally and it doesn't have to suck.

email: pbrwedding@gmail.com to discuss.  you plan where it is, I just show up and say "by the power vested in me" blah blah blah. but you can also turn your wedding into a game show or a triathalon, it's up to you. so if you don't really wanna get married, but kind of, I'm your guy.  I am super affordable - cash or trade.

supporting handmade and local

This is one of the better craft fairs to attend because it is 100% member organized with no company making a profit off of us.  I will be there with my zines, book and the clocks that I make, you may not know about, from recycled containers and epherma.  Dec 1 and 2, Williamsburg.  Handmade Holiday Cavalcade NY Etsy Team

We'll Never Have Paris survives Hurricane Sandy

We'll Never Have Paris is still here, and the Greatest Hits collection is still available.  We lost power in the East Village like everyone else in lower Manhattan for 5 days, then returned gloriously, then lost heat for now 7 days.  The boiler went in the building.

If you haven't gotten this book yet, consider it a donation to a Sandy survivor, if that will get you to buy it.  thanks.

Literary Magazines

I gave a copy of We'll Never Have Paris Greatist Hits to Randy Rosenthal of the Coffin Factory Magazine, John Freeman of Granta, Rob Spillman of Tin House and Lorin Stein of The Paris Review. Ideally, they will go anywhere other than the garbage can. Female literary journal editors (and writers) are underrepresented.
