It's the summer of 1990, and writer Richard Grayson -- about to
turn 39 and having recently lost forty pounds -- has come up from
Florida to spend the summer in his native New York City, shuttling
between a friend's Upper West Side apartment where he's lived for
the previous six summers and his grandmother's apartment on the
beach in Rockaway, where she is suffering from depression and other
problems of old age and is ultimately hospitalized for weeks. For
most of the 1980s, Grayson has gotten by as a writer through
combining literary grants and income from part-time college
teaching and computer education workshops -- and a scheme relying
on constantly moving cash advances from the over 40 credit cards
that Grayson accumulated during the Greed Decade. Now Grayson's
credit card chassis is spinning out of control, with him $150,000
in debt. What do do next? Grayson has previously published a dozen
volumes of his diaries for the twenty years preceding 1990.
