on being a New Yorker today
Sep. 11th, 2014 07:33 amA lovely industry party last night, celebrating Tor.com's new novella venture, wherein I saw many people I knew and connected with some people I did not know, and -wonder of wonders - left before the party was over, because it was a school night.
And on the way from party to subway I saw the Twin Lights rising over NYC, and was reminded again - unwittingly, unwillingly - what week this is. What today is.
The pain eases, the wounds heal. But you never forget. Not really. Even when you wish you could.
Absent friends, and the ones we never had a chance to meet.
