Free Bookmarks! And Dum Dums!

Friday, March 20th, 2009

Come join me and a bizillion other awesome teen authors this Sunday at Books of Wonder in NYC starting at 4PM. I won’t have copies of Perfect Fifths, but I will have a plenitude of Perfect Fifths bookmarks I can sign for you. I’m also bringing 200 Dum Dums. That’s right. Dum Dums.

Why Dum Dums? Why not a more sophisticated candy? First of all, Dum Dums is fun to say. More significant, I’ve realized that whenever I’m offered a free Dum Dum–usually at the kiddie barbershop after my six-year-old has gotten a haircut, or at the dry cleaners–I will TOTALLY TAKE THAT FREE DUM DUM LOLLIPOP and ENJOY the HECK out of it. The pineapple and butterscotch Dum Dums are my favorites. I also like the promise of all those saved Dum Dum wrappers. Like, if you suck enough Dum Dums you can get a Dum Dum backpack or Dum Dum T-shirt. That’s literally and figuratively sweet.

So swing by my table on Sunday to get a Perfect Fifths bookmark and a free Dum Dum while supplies last.

Oh, and I’ll sign whatever copies of my books are on sale too.
