The Philadelphia Inquirer's David Hiltbrand (who's also a mystery novelist--his latest, Dying to Be Famous, is out this month) stopped by to check out GoodisCon on Saturday and filed this cool report. My favorite quote comes from Goodis's cousin Herbert Gross, who recalls:"I knew him very well. And I say that with a question mark. I don't know that anybody knew him very well."
There's a quote from me, too, but it's mostly gushing. (What can I say? When it comes to Goodis, I gush.) I also wrote a tribute to Goodis in my City Paper Editor's Letter this week. I'll post it when it goes live on the web this Thursday.
And look in the above photo... see that copy of Street of the Lost in the corner? That's the one I bought!
I now return you to your regularly scheduled life.
