While it seems to take journalist Adrian Nicole LeBlanc years to write a nonfiction novel, it only takes her minutes to warm up to a group and talk about it.
Much like the stand up comedians she’s currently interviewing for her upcoming book, this spring’s Harman Writer- in- Residence stood up at the podium last night and simultaneously entertained and imparted words of wisdom to her attentive audience. In a friendly and casual tone, LeBlanc read from her first book, Random Family, and her work in progress, and answered a series of curious inquiries afterward.
Her response to one question was that, both writing and comedy is like “a long apprenticeship. It takes a long time to find your voice.”
It’s clearly the case that LeBlanc has long found hers.
Did she mention the comedians she will talk to?
Good observation!
