Wonderful look to it and I like your choices. I haven’t the guts to move to wordpress yet because of the excessive amt of self-ed it will require.

Re: the Proust questionnaire in VF, my favorite mag, my least favorite part. I always think the answers silly, pretentious or dumb. You have, however, picked some good ones. Bette Midler slays me. And I adore Joan Didion and have just read “Democracy” and “Year of Magical Thinking” back to back. You make the questionnaire sound interesting and I consider that an accomplishment.
