TNB Hall of Fame
In a piece entitled “Taking it Day-by-Day,” Marni Grossman reflects on her soul-sucking day job at a calendar kiosk in a Delaware shopping mall. “My manager, Scott, is a pathological liar,” she writes. “Among other things, he’s told me that he was in a counter-narcotics group in the military and that his ex-army buddies want him to join them as a ‘hired mercenary.’ By his own statements, he’s been a manager at a Big Lots and at Naturalizer, a truck driver, a fireman, a wannabe policeman. He saved a Labrador from a dog-fighting ring. He’s written two mystery novels. ‘Sometimes,’ he told me, ‘when I was writing my book, I just couldn’t believe how good it was. I blew myself away.’”
