Camille Cusumano

I’m proud to announce that I’ve been accepted as a Red Room Author at the Web site of that name. I’ll be in the same Room with such luminaries as Barak Obama, Maya Angelou, Salman Rushdie, and my much-esteemed former writing coach, Ericka Lutz, not to mention many writers like myself, who are not widely known. Yet. What an honor. The site’s hosts accepted me over night—waiving the usual two-week period of approval. How affirming is that!

And, I just found my fellow Itinerant, Gayle Keck in the Red Room. Or, just go right to her savory Chasing a Food Memory. Here’s a taste of it: “It’s an unassuming plate - little irregular lumps of nearly naked pasta. No visual fireworks, no flashy garnish  . . .” Better yet, check out her cool side site, Been there Ate that http://www.beenthereatethat.com/.

Gayle is a member of my writing group, the Itinerants.

I’ll be blogging (and at times blah-ging) in the Room for a while.

Here’s what I look like in Red Room–you can’t miss me:
