Will, that first paragraph is the best thing I've read in a long time--not just here, but anywhere.

Fantastic!

Hi Will,

while trying to avoid the shameless plug thing, i was thinking you might enjoy a film clip i got at the Texas Book Festival of Sherman Alexie reading from his new young adult novel "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-time Indian". For the full effect at least get to the reading part, although his answers to followup questions are pretty hilarious. A few days after i filmed this, he won the National Book Award for this novel.

-- and a music video i sent you a year ago, that you kindly publicized, has led to a new world for the young man whose music was featured, including a White House audience and being named the Child Welfare Youth of the Year for Texas. He was the subject of a feature story on FoxNews-Houston for Thanksgiving. Here's a copy of that story:

-- thanks, and keep up the great work with Clicked (i've emailed a few folks about how hard it is to find on the Homepage -- i hope someone wakes up to the fine work you do).

all my best,
