Lost SummerThirteen years after "My Summer Story" was filmed here and forgotten, one of the movie's extras rediscovers a so-so sequel in the shadow of its famous forerunner.
Cleveland Magazine, June 2006

If you get the chance, check out this piece in CleveMag I wrote about the sequel to A Christmas Story. Let me know if it sucks. While I appreciate they had to cut a lot out of it, of everything I have written for the magazine, this one is the first edited by someone who doesn't think I write very clearly. There's an awful lot of "my voice" (as they say) which has been flattened out or oversimplified.
That, and they cut out the bit about Grodin's hairpiece.
I should be used to this by now, especially as I insist on turning everything in a week late and five hundred words over. But please, I am an artist (cue fart noise.)

Then buy a copy of the magazine, you cheap bastard.
do they have it at the library?
They most probably do.
oh, that's nice. i don't go there or anything, 'cause libraries are for losers. i just thought i'd ask.
yeah, so, what kind of game are you running, hansen? the new issue is not out on shelves, at least not at the brecksville heinen's where i attempted to actually buy a copy tonight on my way home - only about a million copies of the may issue. i'm beginning to wonder if you actually wrote anything. or if there even is a new issue of cleveland magazine.
You've gotten awfully tense about this, Laura. I think Justin needs to "spray the baby's head."
ewwww - remind me not to ask you to babysit.
