What an incredible story.

- Um, hello, everyone.

I was so looking forward
to being here tonight

with my editor, Liza Miller,

who I put my absolute faith
and trust in

as I was writing my first book.

Some of you know
I've been working on a sequel,

and I have to admit,
it's been hard

avoiding the sophomore slump.

Just found myself writing
the most clichéd story.

The heroine,
the long-suffering wife,

returns from a writing
sabbatical only to find

that she's lost her husband
to a young assistant.

I don't think it's any secret
that my writing

is somewhat autobiographical.

So imagine how stunned
I was to learn that the truth

is much more dramatic
than anything

I ever could have written.

Because the truth is,
the young assistant...
