HERMITOLOGY



My name is Riley, and I play drums and write music for a band called Thrice.

This is where I ramble about music, sports, food, books, interwebbery, and whatever else I feel like sharing. I apologize in advance.

In addition to my ramblings here, I write a piece for OC Weekly called "3hree Things" that runs every Tuesday, and I'm also writing over at Flip Collective on occasion.

I'm the co-founder of a baseball-specific twitter feed and blog with my friend Ian, called Productive Outs.

And last, but not least, I have a bandcamp page and a soundcloud page that I'll be posting my own music and remixes on every once in a while.

Disclaimer: The views and opinions presented on this blog are mine, and do not reflect the position or views of the band as a whole.

A CELEBRATION OF DAVID FOSTER WALLACE

peterwknox:

Nine peers pay tribute with a talk or essay. Strong suggestion.

Amy Wallace-Havens is David’s sister. She is a deputy public defender in southern Arizona.
Bonnie Nadell is vice president of Frederick Hill Bonnie Nadell Agency in Los Angeles.
Gerry Howard is an executive editor at large for Doubleday.
Colin Harrison is a novelist, and a vice president and senior editor at Scribner.
Michael Pietsch is executive vice president and publisher of Little, Brown and Company.
Don DeLillo has written fourteen novels, including White Noise and Underworld.
Zadie Smith has written three novels and the essay collection Changing My Mind.
George Saunders is the author of several books, including Pastoralia.
Jonathan Franzen is the author of several books, including The Corrections.

Consider this an addendum to my previous post.

I can’t possibly explain the amount of respect I have for DFW’s work and the effect it’s had on my life.

“…David made me see the world through his eyes – made me think harder, feel infinitely sadder and laugh at all sorts of crazy things. We will all miss him dearly.” -Bonnie Nadell
