Congratulations to Frank Wilson and Books, Inq.


Today, Books, Inq., Frank Wilson's digital exploration of the arts, literature, and culture celebrated a significant milestone: 

The blog has now passed 2,000,000 page views. 

That's a tremendous accomplishment, one that wouldn't have been possible without Frank's vision, generosity, commitment, and enthusiasm.

I've known Frank since 2008, and it's been my great privilege to call him a friend. But Frank is more than that: he's an mentor, an editor, a confidant, and a go-to for coffee dates around Rittenhouse Square. 

So much about how I approach literature and writing has been informed by Frank, his blog, his stories, and his wisdom. 

Let me take this opportunity to thank Frank for welcoming me - and our partners, Julie, Vikram, and Dave - as part of the blogging team, and as part, more importantly, of his life.

Here's to the next two million!

  1. Oh, my. Well, I think the important thing about these four musqueteers is simply how we came to be. Talk about the invisible hand. Wendy Emery, my stepdaughter Gwen's best and oldest friend, and thus my honorary stepdaughter, has just the term for it: Ordained. Thank you Vikram, Jesse, and Julie.
