Books by Washington Post writers have won Pulitzers for three years in a row, once in history and twice now in general non-fiction (Atkinson, Applebaum, Coll). And just a quick glance around my immediate part of the newsroom, I see a bunch of other folks who've written books in the last year or so: Neely Tucker, Gene Robinson, Wil Haygood, Ann Gerhart, Lynne Duke, Von Drehle, Weingarten. Joel Garreau has a cool book on the future coming out soon. Lonnae O'Neal Parker has just finished a book. Stephen Hunter always has a book out. So now I know what you're thinking: That we should stop writing books and start writing newspaper stories. Good idea. Let me check with my agent.
How's PAUL ATTANASIO doing?
