I was on WNYC today, being the expert on the “Ask an Expert” segment of Alison Stewart’s All of It. Want to listen to it? You can here. And so, the new bits that fill out the latest issue are new dining spots to know about in Paris and in Brooklyn. In addition, I am so happy to share with you the winner of The Feiring Line Writing Mentorship Award. Based in Spain, Meg Bernhard wrote a beautiful, nuanced and evocative piece on making wine with a woman. For now, I’m sorry but that’s for the TFL readers but keep your eyes on thi space! The new wines? As it turns out, the entire bunch is zero/zero stuff. Have a lovely few weeks. |
