John Hodgman

For 13 months he answered questions on the subject
of publishing, writing, cryptozoology, Robert Cormier,
and THE LORD OF THE RINGS as part of an occasionally
helpful advice column “Ask A Former Professional Literary
Agent” at www.mcsweeneys.net,
a task to which he hopes soon to return. Meanwhile,
he hosts the Little Gray Book Lectures in Brooklyn
on a monthly basis, and he remains an expert on ultra-hot
hot sauces, hobbits, and the radio arts as they were
once practiced at WMFO-FM, Medford, MA, from about
1988-1990, where he was briefly the host of an actual
radio show. He is available to speak on these subjects,
or any other, to your group, party, or corporate retreat.
In fact, he is apparently desperate to do so. His
nemesis is the mad Dr. Craig Kittles. He has two cats.
