" Last night, I went to Jennifer Weiner&amp;#039;s book reading\u2014she&amp;#039;s awesome! go see her!\u2014and, while waiting for her to sign a copy of my book, ended up in a convo with friends about ideal types. (The book, by the way, about how a politician&amp;#039;s affair rocks his family&amp;#039;s life\u2014and how his two grown daughters cope with it\u2014is awesome) For me, I always go for shaggy writer types. Scratch that. I go for shaggy writers. It&amp;#039;s no secret that I want to be part of a Brooklyn Literary Power Couple (BLPC for short) When I told a new acquaintance that, she looked at me with pity.  Is this what Brooklyn Literary Power Couples do together? I don&amp;#039;t know, I&amp;#039;m still not part of one!  &amp;quot;That&amp;#039;s crazy! Not only is that way too limiting, but you&amp;#039;d be in competition! He&amp;#039;d be too needy! You&amp;#039;d be too competitive! And who&amp;#039;d have money?&amp;quot; she railed. &amp;quot;Why not just someone who likes writing?&amp;quot; Another said more diplomatically. I shrugged. Part of me knows it&amp;#039;s silly, knows that the ridiculous parameters I&amp;#039;ve made for dating are better suited to a Kate Hudson movie than real life, but . . . I don&amp;#039;t know. Part of me just wants that. What about you? Do you have a type? Also, by the way, the Jennifer Weiner reading had SO MANY DELICIOUS CUPCAKES. If she&amp;#039;s in your area (check here!) definitely check her out! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
