Deficient article
I'm the subject of this article, which I did not originate. As per the community guidelines for Autobiography, I'm suggesting some revisions to make the article more complete, more accurate and more interesting, if anyone wishes to take the trouble.

- I never attended Trinity College. It's true that I don't have a degree; the last school at which I matriculated, however, was New York University.

- My first collection of stories, Thirst, is comprised of short stories that I published in literary magazines, including the Village Voice Literary Supplement, the North American Review, and the University of Arizona's Sonora Review, when David Foster Wallace was its fiction editor.
