RIP: an author, an artist

failbetter is saddened to hear of the untimely passing of one of our most inspiring authors and fb alums, Paul Auster.  Paul was a fixture of the neighbor back in our humble Brooklyn begging days, and for a luddite who only used a typewriter to create, he was integral in the establishment of our online magazine.  We recall with a certain degree of excitement and trepidation a time more than two decades ago detailing the impact of the internet on storytelling and story tellers, and are forever grateful to him for being one of our first author interviews.  So, to our readers today, we implore you to read his books… and remember his words.
