Asking Eric: Who’s the guy replacing ‘Ask Amy’ Dickinson?

Amy Dickinson has announced that her final “Ask Amy” column will run at the end of June, and the role will then be filled by R. Eric Thomas.

Dear Asking Eric: You’ll be giving out advice in this new syndicated column. What’s your story?

Dear Readers: I’m sometimes asked what advice I would give my younger self; say, myself at 14.

I usually answer by joking that I’d definitely advise my younger self not to lie to my friends about seeing the movie “Se7en” in 1995.
