About a month ago, I toiled for days over a piece I was going to post here about all the reasons why artists should move to Detroit. I decided to sit on it for awhile, mainly because I thought it might be better received if it were written by an artist … who lived in Detroit. Well. That happened. (As a side note, I’m starting a movement to ban the phrase “Recently, at a dinner party” from the NYT’s op-ed section.)

Maybe I’ll revisit that story tonight, since I don’t have any dinner party plans. … And maybe I should rename this blog “Empty Promises.”
