I only go to the fair because of the food.

Are you going to read J.K. Rowling's new book, 'The Casual Vacancy'?

9/25/2012 11:07 AM


Shallow though the admission is, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't envious of author J.K. Rowling's massive success.

I am not, however, remotely jealous of her critics.

Living Wright

While other kids were watching "The Smurfs," Scene Writer Jason Ashley Wright was tuned in to "Style with Elsa Klensch." By fourth grade, he knew he wanted to write, and spent almost three years publishing a weekly teen-oriented magazine, Teen-Zine -- circulation: 2. After earning a degree in journalism from the University of Southern Mississippi, he became the medical reporter and teen board coordinator for the Hattiesburg (Miss.) American, a Gannett newspaper. Eight months later, with visions of Elsa dancing in his head, he applied for the fashion writer position at the Tulsa World, where he began working on Aug. 3, 1998. He is now a general assignment reporter for Scene.
