R. Singh: The lives and times of a single species are too thin a tale to tell about a place like Potomac Creek, Virginia, where our immigrant family arrived more than a half-century ago. Potomac Creek now lies at the center of my new book project. Often, these posts work through ideas inspired by life on the Creek. Hopefully they'll resonate with people elsewhere. I'm available for talks, and follow me on twitter: @3lions99. My literary agent is Leslie Meredith of Dystel, Goderich & Bourret: lmeredith@dystel.com
