when i was 11 years old i sent a cassette tape to an address i found at the back of a magazine advertising auditions to narrate audiobooks. i chose a selection from Dandelion Wine. i was not hired.
at about this same time i stowed a cupcake in my knit hat walking home from school. crumbs for days.
Fast-forward.
