Bill Peschel: Hell is Other Singles

What is this?
It's Bill Peschel's professional and personal home on the web. Welcome. Poke around in the drawers and cupboards. There's a lot of interesting stuff here.
What's the Reader's Almanac?
It's my 2008-2009 nonfiction book project. A year's worth of entertaining and thought-provoking stories and anecdotes about writers and their books, tied to the day they occurred. Published regularly. Here's a list of the essays published so far.
Why is it on the web?
I don't have an agent or a contract, so this is my way of building an audience, and seeing if there's any interest in the book. The daily deadlines don't hurt, either.
Are you going to write anything else here?
Sure. The occasional book review, a collection of links to neat articles and websites, and my opinions. You know, the usual stuff you find on the web.

Hell is Other Singles

This will probably go away quickly, so read it while you can: The single life in Washington DC.

Reading Franklin Schneider's account of re-entering the single scene makes me ever so glad I'm happily married.

I found the article because the guy who did the illustrations is Robert Ullman, whose Atom Bomb Bikini blog is on my to-read list.
