robin_hazelwood_web.jpgAt SoHo House Wednesday night, Robin Hazelwood (right) signed a copy of her book "Model Student" for Valerie Wayne, while her brother Charles Rockefeller (center) purchased his copy. Model turned novelist Robin Hazelwood, whose book party I wrote about in today's column, is busy on her second book, tentatively titled "Hamptons Share." Here's what she told me about it: "People who move to New York are a certain type. And the people who are out in the Hamptons are sort of like that to the ninth degree. A lot of them are out there and they're kind of chasing after this, this dream of the shingled mansion, the rolling lawn, the towering beechwoods, 11,000-square-foot beach cottage. My book has four characters who in various ways are reaching for that." Ms. Hazelwood also wants to write a book about competitive swimming (which she did in high school), but her agent said the Hamptons had to come first. Ms. Hazelwood's next reading in New York is for her fellow Elis at the Yale Club.
