Upcoming Book Signing

I am excited about my upcoming book signing to be held at the Moravian Book Shop, 428 Main Street, Bethlehem, PA, on Sunday, November 30, 2014, between 1-3 p.m.  I’ve sent out almost fifty postcard invitations to family, local friends, business acquaintances, church members, and Facebook friends who may want to support me. I’m going to have a backpack as a prop, and hang two large, 18″ x 24″ laminated We Picked Up posters that my publishing company, Balboa Press sent me, on either side of the signing table. An important component will be the presence of my brother, Welles, a book enthusiast. He will act as a type of informal MC to get shoppers excited, and he’ll also participate in a few short readings we have planned, to read the voice of Otto George. I also sent an invitation to the real-life Otto George, though I’ve got no expectations that he’ll show up.  Just like I say on page 123, it’s like we are latter-day Paul McCartney and John Lennon, working separately-but-together on The White Album. It still seems true today. He is a brilliant personality, but doesn’t seem to want anything to do with this project or me.
