Kind words from Michael Swanwick. Entertaining writer, generous blogger, and not above reminding me of a practical joke he played on me before cell phones were invented. It involved some Bell Company equipment and a lot of tape.
Philadelphia Stories talked to me recently. And I talked to them.
Walt Maguire is the author of a few plays, more newspaper and magazine articles, and a lot of that newfangled web content. He also has a background in web design and marketing consultation. He is also on the editorial board of the quarterly Philadelphia Stories.
The Author’s other titles might eventually include “Letting Go: A memoir of getting far enough up Everest,” “Promises to Keep: An oral history of crossing fingers (transcribed),” “A Good Walk Spoiled: How America’s love of dogs led us off our ruined sidewalks onto the Federal Highway System,” or “A Monkey Stole My Camera: Photographs from the MOMA Collection (foreward).”
Mr. Maguire lives in Philadelphia, and would love an opportunity to explain himself at your next book club meeting or juggling festival.
