This is just as I imagine Joan Didion: preoccupied, hurried, deceptively frail. She reminds me of my mother whose death even after five years is still such a raw nerve that I can’t even approach Didion’s latest book.
Nice to see you’re making good use of you’re big-ass rented lens. So, if the collective plural noun "paparazzi" comes from the Fellini character Signor Paparazzo, is the singular feminine noun “paparazza”? You make a very nice paparazza.

This is a great action shot. I love how she's totally underdressed compared to the other photos.

I think this really captures the "I really don't want to be here" moment.

Lovely. Of the people you shot, she looks like the only one to whom I could actually relate.

I love the body language. 'I'm an author, not a professional photographee like the trust fund babies over there. Go photograph them, I have other things I'd rather be doing.'

Touching photo of the writer. Ever thought about doing graphic fiction?
