Review of Laughing without an Accent

A HILARIOUS and upfront profile . If ALL profiles could come in this diary-esque format, there's so much dimension. You get: a good determined writer story with plenty of personality, a tour of the publishing world, a persevering female/mother story and all of it spiced with the larger issue of immigration. If only there'd been a little more of her writing.
interesting editing - humorous, transparent weave between the narrator and protagonist.
