"A Little Life" is one of the three finalists for the Carnegie Medal. It's appearing in almost every awards shortlist, it seems. It's competing against the novel I mentioned, "The Sympathizer". Call me crazy, but they're both in my slowly-shortening Pulitzer shortlist.

12. What is your wardrobe like? Casual, dressy, utilitarian? Bright colors, pastels, neutrals? Is it varied, or do you have six of the same suit? Utilitarian. Very. I can buy a whole rack of $5 Walmart tees and $7 blue jeans and not be bothered in the least. I usually have a decent variety of colors for the same basic shirt, and 6 pairs of the same jeans at any given moment.

But it's the surprises that really enervated me and kept me reading through to the end (or should it be, the beginning?). Well... the fact that I can be stubborn didn't hurt, either (ha ha).

12. Do you have any diagnosable mental disorders? If yes, how do you deal with them? I have undiagnosed Aspergers. It’s a social disorder that means I’ll never see the world quite the same as most people. It’s generally accompanied by a lack of friends, a naïve personality, unusually strong obsessions, and a high IQ.

I do not know who runs the site or their formula, but if you look at the past "best of year" lists, then the site's owner has done a terrific job of identifying stand out fiction from that calendar year. I expect that the list will fluctuate as award season progresses and best of lists are published, but at the current time Sympathizer is right up there with several other books which have been more widely discussed on this site.

@AlexKerner @kriscoffield I snagged "The Shore" from the library when you first brought it up, Alex--I didn't have time to read it, however, so it was returned. Thank you for reminding me! I was meaning to give it a second shot. :)

Downtown Chattanooga’s leisure travel infrastructure is, in many ways, still in its infancy. The good news is that visitors won’t need to fight the thick crowds of tourists found in other, more popular vacation destinations. The downside is that the number of boutique accommodations is limited. Airbnb is a solid, inexpensive bet, and there are hundreds of convenient options in and around the city center.

@Marybethking @ChrisEllis77 Not likely to be a pulitzer contender (nor should it be) but definitely worth more than 20 pages!! Maybe you'll pick it up at a later date. :) Worth a second try, I think.

2. Do you think on your feet, or do you need time to deliberate? : I'm great at thinking on my feet. But if I sit and think about something, it comes out just as great, if not better.

4. How do you regard beliefs that differ from your? Are you tolerant, intolerant, curious, indifferent? I'm still very open minded and tolerant, and still want to beat the shit out of intolerant people.

Good point. There's an old phrase in sports about keeping things in house. Montero didn't abide by it and he's gone. He should have known better.

Dinner that night was with Cindy, Ken, and their daughter, Madi, who was a doll and with whom the Cub connected, immediately (they made plans to head for the North Shore to jump from the cliffs that we visited back in June). We visited until well past sunset, at which point Hugh and I excused ourselves due to our early flight.

@EdParks @JohnZ It is true: I have no reason to assume she continued to write. Except that Lee was a writer, and as such, I would be absolutely shocked if she resisted the temptation to continue her craft long after her debut publication albeit in secret.

3. Do you have a distinct accent or dialect? Any individual quirks of pronunciation? Any, like, you know, verbal tics? I have no accent that I know of. (I certainly don‘t sound Texan…) I do have a tendency to use a wide vocabulary, which has long resulted in confusion between me and the average teenager.

8. How do you respond to new people or situations? Are you suspicious, relaxed, timid, enthusiastic? I take things in stride, I still have that paranoid part of me that keeps tabs on environmental weapons, but I'm more relaxed in public than I used to be. You could say the trouble radar is still on but now not EVERYONE in the room is on it.

7. What are your eating habits? Do you skip meals, eat out, drink alcohol, avoid certain foods? No salad, no fish, no exceptions. Meat and potatoes kind of guy.

With these facts in mind - and while remaining aware of the struggles our city faces - there is reason to be optimistic about the future of Winnipeg. We have many leaders who are stepping up and taking action to create a better view of our city.

@EdParks @BRAKiasaurus @ey814 Ha, I don't actually think our tastes and interpretations are that divergent. The tempestuous tone of our recent dialogues aside, I tend to enjoy the novels your recommend. (You strike me as someone who puts great effort, as needed, into the novels you read--even going so far as vouching for the allegedly overwritten portions of "The Stones of Summer", suggesting that they are in fact part of the voice of a drug-addled mind--which is why I was honestly surprised by the assertion that Walbert's footnotes were gimmicky or that you wanted a straightforward narrative.)

The transgenes used in creating GM crops are patented and owned by biotech companies. In the United States and Canada, companies have launched lawsuits against farmers whose crops were alleged to contain a company’s patented GM genes. Farmers’ claims that they have not intentionally planted GM crops have proved no defense in court against large fines being imposed.

14. What do you fear? This may sound pretty crazy, but I am afraid of not being committed to something/someone, I have a raging fear of giant slides you find at carnivals (Fractured my leg on one when I was almost 12, never been on one since then.) and I am batshit scared by The Scarecrow in the Batman series...

In an ideal world, it is recommended to save one-third of your income (yeah, right!); we know that isn’t always possible, but every little bit counts. Check the bank accounts that will reward your money the most and start saving. Use it as a savings account only.

Fortune Smiles is what I want to pick, but I honestly don't see it happening. Then I was thinking (and wanting) Tsar, but I think they will stress the American emphasis this year. I haven't finished The Sellout yet, but I think that it will be a finalist with Fates, with Did You Ever Have a Family winning it all.

Testing tactics could then be changing messaging, removing non-critical content, and promoting temporary offers. The results of these testing tactics would all contribute to generating a better understanding of what changes can be made to increase the checkout cart rate and therefore increase revenues.
