i emailed him & he sent me a little note back, which i thought was super gracious of him.

Yeah, that's excellent. He must be getting tons of emails!

I was also planning to write him a quick note, and I think Kimmie is too, she asked me for his address.

I feel like such a slacker, I haven't even read it yet.

i haven't read it yet either -- i figure maybe in the summer i'll get to read fiction again. right now it's baseball and poetry all the time!

Do you have his mailing address? I have his MIT email, but that's all. We want to send him a wedding invitation. Not like I expect him to show up in Atlanta, but it seemed like a good way to say thanks.

No, sorry, I don't have his mailing address. You could try sending it generically to the English Dept at MIT. Or try checking the MIT phone directory online. I know he has an assistant at MIT--even though he was/is in Italy for a chunk of this year, she still forwards mail. Or we could, you know, ask him where to send it. :)

Do you have Junot's mailing address (see below)?

[birdmaddgirl.livejournal.com]

sorry, no. i think your suggestions are as good as it gets -- probably they should just email him and say they want to send him a wedding invitation and ask what the best address is to do so.

Yeh, I figure I'll just wait for all this to settle down a little, then ask him for his address.
