The M.O.

The M.O.

Born in Austin, Matthew left soon thereafter and finally made it back after years of paying his penance wandering the earth. Before coming to Austin360, Matthew co-edited Austinist.com, worked as an advertising copywriter and led tours of the Roman Forum, among other things.

When not busy pounding away on his keyboard, he can be found at book readings, concerts, gelaterias, pizza joints, Barton Springs, movie theaters, the golf course, or home with a book. The M.O. gives readers a little insight into the world of this man without a plan.

David Sedaris in San Marcos Friday night

By Matthew Odam | Friday, June 19, 2009, 10:23 AM

Humorist and author David Sedaris may be dressed up in denim this weekend, as he will be visiting Hastings in San Marcos. You read that correctly. Sedaris in San Marcos.

The New York Times bestselling author has a massive following in Austin, as evidenced by his sold-out shows and the long snaking lines present at each of his book-singing appearances here. Apparently his fame stretches down the IH-35 corridor, as he is scheduled to be in both San Marcos and San Antonio this weekend.

Considering how difficult it can be to see Sedaris in Austin, it may be worth your time to head down the road to catch him in San Marcos.

Sedaris is touring in support of the recent paperback release of “When You Are Engulfed in Flames.”
