Dear Joshua,

Anyone who is published by Pantheon and Vintage is likely to intimidate the shit out of me. But I'd love a copy of your book. Please send your offer to the Three Guys official email:

threeguysonebook@gmail.com

and I'll send you a mailing address. And thanks for your very kind comments. I was wondering if anyone was reading those Wolff posts.

I love your blog. It's incredibly smart and interesting, and your recent post about Tobias Wolff's stories was spot-on, I thought. I'm the author, most recently, of the novel MATRIMONY, published by Pantheon and Vintage, which was a 2007 NYT Notable Book. Michael Cunningham said this about MATRIMONY: "In the tradition of John Cheever and Richard Yates, a devastating novel about love, hope, delusion, and the intricate ways in which time's passage raises us up even as it grinds us down. It's a beautiful book." I'd love to send you a copy. Let me know where to send it.

JE, my greatly respected friend, that's a very generous offer. But I gave it all up some time ago. I'm a nice guy now. :)

Besides, I noticed a picture from Lauren's and your reception on Facebook. It was one of the sweetest sights that I've ever seen. No kidding at all.
