I Read It for the Articles

September 18, 2023  /  Susannah Breslin

I bought this Playboy the other day at a vintage store in Atwater Village on the east side of Los Angeles. I had been planning on mentioning this very issue (October 1979) in the novel I’m working on, which I refer to as “The Porn Novel,” and so when I saw it there, on the table, I thought it was a sign. What kind of sign? Who knows. Sometimes you just need to go with them. Anyway, I paid $15 for it, which is a little steep, because I probably could’ve got it online for a little less, or maybe not, who cares. Anyway, I tweeted about it after I bought it, saying that touching this used copy had gotten me pregnant, which was a joke, of course.

The Fixer Is In

August 15, 2023  /  Susannah Breslin

I don’t talk a lot about my strategic communications consulting work, aka The Fixer, because most of my clients find me through word-of-mouth and because my clients are often high-profile, high-net-worth individuals. But if you’re interested in learning more about how we might work together, you can purchase an introductory one-hour session with me here or email me to find out more about what I do here.
