In Eastern Maryland and Virginia its pulled pork mixed with a slightly tangy, slightly
sweet tomato based sauce, in Kansas its pulled pork drenched in a super
sweet, dark colored molasses based sauce, in North Carolina its pulled pork in a shockingly sour vinegar based sauce, and in Alabama... well in Alabama they
live under the delusion that the best BBQ in the world comes in the form
of a flat, dry, piece
of plain pork on a bun paired with a
mystery sauce in a squeeze bottle... I kid you not, they really think its great.
Currently Looking For: Fiction that hits the
sweet spot between commercial and literary with interesting settings and a strong narrative voice;
mystery (particularly cozies and crossover literary — think Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger), literary thriller, and psychological suspense; and memoir by writers who connect the events
of their
lives to readers through incredible storytelling, as well as a wide variety
of prescriptive and narrative nonfiction and gift books.
