Moody blues

On the eve of the release of his latest novel, The Diviners, Rick Moody is looking forward to some growing recognition for his band, The Wingdale Community Singers. The article alternates between a defence of creative freedom and an apology for creative multi-tasking as famous author and would-be musician, and culminates in the author pledging the following to fans: “I will never pad shirtless across a stage in front of a microphone stand, festooned with fluffy boas. I will never destroy a hotel room. I will never brandish a handgun in order to bolster my street credibility. I will never, ever be seen at a party with someone whose profession is model/actress.”
