Lauren Cerand and Tayari Jones
What a lovely day! I slept in and then headed to the Cornelia Street Cafe to meet with my friend/publicist, Lauren Cerand. We talked about the exciting projects she's working on, and we reminisced about the great events we did when we were working together. She gave me advice about my career and my life, while allowing me little peeks into the fabulousness that is the world of a young successful publicista. (As per usual, I learned a new term: "exy". It means expensive.) I left the lunch happy-- Lauren and I actually ate our food. We are not the NY types that go to lunch and just lick our cell phones for sustenance. We did damage to our steak and potatoes, a little wine, and a brownie sundae for desert. But the point of this post is that I walked away ready to work on my novel-in-progress. Why? Because I am so ready to work with Lauren again!
