Humorist David Sedaris<\/a> has spent more than three decades writing about the absurdities of modern life and sharing his work in front of live audiences. <\/p>\n

“I love attention,” he says of going on tour. “I love going on stage and I love people applauding, love people laughing.”<\/p>\n

But reading out loud isn’t just about adoration. Sedaris says he’s always listening for reactions from the crowd and tweaking his work in response. <\/p>\n

“The audience is my first editor,” he says. “When they cough, they tell me that I need to cut whatever it is that I’m reading. Of course, when they laugh, that’s fantastic. But I don’t mind a groan. A collective groan is fine with me.”<\/p>\n
