Frank Warren

I went to the AR Literary Festival this weekend specifically to see Frank Warren speak about his project “Postsecret”. I really enjoyed what he had to say even though the people running the festival were so disorganized. He asked us if we knew what the number 1 secret was. Someone shouted out, “cheating”. He said, “anyone else”? No one said a word. He said, “So that’s all you got, Little Rock?” Then he said the answer was, “I pee in the shower”. And he went on to add that it was illustrated in all types of wonderful ways. He said that he receives between 100-200 postcards PER DAY. I hope they bring him back next year. I hope they are more organized so I don’t feel like I need to hide under my chair in shame. I hope they let us spend more time with him.

This is a postcard that he posted last Sunday. For those of you that don’t know, he posts new postcards every Sunday. The first thing I do when I wake up is check the web site. I haven’t sent in a postcard. I know I have secrets but the scary part is uncovering them.

    I heard he was going to be there. I sort of wanted to hear him talk, but timing didn’t work out. I hate that it was so disorganized.

    I heard about this project. It’s very interesting – I think it says something about the very human urge to confess stuff. (Even if it’s just about peeing in the shower.)

    So, Miss Wendy, what would your secret be?

    I pick my nose in the car.
