Checking up on Diablo

I don't get over to Diablo Cody's blog [not "family friendly," as CNN says] as often as I should, but when I do, there's usually something interesting going on.

A couple of months ago, she published a book, then she was on Letterman plugging it. She's sold a screen play that's currently in casting.

And now she's hit the "Big Time." CNN Entertainment has interviewed her.

The part I liked best about the interview is the part that echoes what I've been saying about Diablo for a couple of years now. This quotation is from the publisher of her book, Lauren Marino, executive editor at Gotham Books:

"It wasn't so much the subject matter that attracted me as it was her voice. She can write about anything and make me want to read it. She's so intelligent and witty. She's funny, she's edgy and she's got a great sensibility."

Exactly.

See? I told you she's funny.

P.S.: If you haven't seen her Letterman interview, check it out. She gets off some pretty decent one-liners. Even Dave seems to enjoy the interview.
