Yes, it really was fun, even for broke assistants drinking cheap dive-bar beer with their colleagues after work. I weep for our Gen Z successors, who now end their days by shutting their laptops and scrolling TikTok...
Paul, it’s John Barlow. I can’t tell you how much I enjoy this. As a former publicist who had a love/hate relationship with my job: loved the theater, hated the apathy of the editors eventually, your writing is a tonic. Nobody writes like you do. Nobody tells it like it is. Nobody has the inclination. Nobody has the fearlessness. Would you ever consider a book? A real book of your adventures in the trade? It would be thrilling. You’re the badass pr I was too chicken shit to be. I admire you tremendously. All kind regards, Barlow. john@woodlot.com.
