Answers to questions about my appearance at the Author! Author! Book Festival on Saturday:
1. What the heck is Barry-oke?
Barry-oke is this, this, this and this. I ask audience members to write their names and requests forĀ Barry Manilow songs on slips of paper, which are then placed in The Official Barry-oke Bag (left). Then I choose one request at random. That person gets a prize AND everyone then gets to enjoy my rendition of the Barry Manilow song he/she requested. Everyone wins.
2. Why on earth would you ever do this in public? (more…)

In addition to my appearance at the Author! Author! Book Festival on September 19th, I’ve added two more events in New Jersey this fall. And if you love books and love kids, you don’t want to miss the Princeton Public Library’s Children’s Book Festival this Saturday, September 12th from 11AM-4PM. I’ll be there (not as a participant) buying up armloads of autographed books for my son and nieces.

Just when I had committed myself to a few seasons of hermetic solitude so I could work on my next novel, along comes an event I just couldn’t resist. If you live in Jersey (or want to take a roadtrip) come get PERFECT FIFTHS and the rest of the Jessica Darling novels signed at the Author! Author! Book Festival hosted by Chicklet Books at the Princeton Shopping Center in Princeton, NJ on Saturday, September 19th. Logistical complications may make Barry-oke an impossiblity. However, I will surround myself with the sounds of The Showman of Our Time for as long as my fellow authors can stand it. (A more detailed schedule of events to follow, when I get them.) P.S. Are you following me on Twitter?
