Fine Print

You like to read? I like to write.

I'm a freelance writer living in Northampton, MA, with my husband and two daughters. I write all the livelong day—sometimes for money, sometimes for fun. This is the fun part.

Lila began talking more about Tracy Turnblatt today in the car.

Me: Turnblatt?

Lila: Turnblatt.

Me: Huh, I guess she’s supposed to be Jewish.

Lila: Really?

Me: Well, it’s a Jewish name.

Lila: She doesn’t act Jewish.

[pause]

Lila: But her mom kind of does.
