Q&A About the Author! Author! Book Festival
Wednesday, September 16th, 2009
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 for 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…)

“Candy-colored book covers often indicate saccharine heroines too focused on chasing new purses and cute guys to develop real character, but McCafferty allows Jessica to grow up, taking her from age 16 to 26 through the five-book series that culminates in Perfect Fifths. Without getting stuck in either the Young Adult or Chick Lit category, McCafferty competes with Gossip Girl and Bridget Jones—and holds her own…Jessica Darling is a smart heroine who doesn’t lose her head—or her skirt—over every possible Prince Charming. She mocks relentlessly, but she also loves wholeheartedly. McCafferty convinces readers that it’s OK to be witty and smart, and that even a hard-line cynic can be a bit of a romantic in the end.”

A reader asked me: Does this still mean anything?
The answer: Yes. Very much so. But not in the way you might think.
When the global economy is in the crapper, and not a day goes by that I don’t read an article sounding the death knell for book publishing and print in general, readers like you spent your hard-earned cash to find out what happens to these characters I totally made up.
That means something to me. Making the list (to be posted May 3rd) is a sweet bonus.
Thank you.
