Ugh, I felt awful that my boss wouldn't let me say your book title on publicity in my library... I hope they let you say it this time--and congrats! I might actually be in NYC that week for a vacation, so if I'm there I'll definitely show up!

I'll try to think of some good venues for you... although that neighborhood is a tough one...

I would love to see you in NYC. It only takes me 1.5h to go there. My sister lives in the village. It would be great to hear you read. Please keep us posted on your possible venues. Good luck on your appearance, I am sure you will be fabulous!!

Tres Kewl! It's so exciting to see good things continuing to come your way. Will definitely set my DVR for The Early Show that day!

I do hope they'll let you say the name - if not, like fd said, maybe they'll let you use the word "arse".

Come to DC! It's only 4 hours south of NYC ... and you know, still kinda far from IN, but whatevs. Come to DC!

K.]]> Yes I will most likely make it, unless it is late cause I don't like being out late---have to be up at 5am to workout the following morning and all. Let us know tho, should be fun to finally meet you, lol. Will you resign my book a second time then, cause I already have a signed copy. Congrats on this exciting milestone,

I have a layover in DC, so technically I am for a couple hours. If you can get through airport security I'd be happy to do a quickie signing in the airport book shop.

That's so great. I too will set my DVR to record The Early Show, which I would not have otherwise watched.

Also wanted to say that I got the August 2008 SHAPE magazine in the mail yesterday and saw your book on the list of Must Reads. Whooo hooo!

Congrats!

I SHOULD be in town that day. I work, of course, but can try to come afterwards. So you have a moderately-familiar face and all that. Sadly, I have no recommendations on places to do the reading. But I do promise to wear comfortable shoes to get wherever it is you will be reading :)

I'm sure you already have, but email Lori. She knows far more about this city than I do, except for perhaps the exact location of Strawberry Fields...

I would be interested in coming if I can make it on time. It's about a 1:30 train ride from my work, but I have to check the schedule. No suggestions, though. Even though I live on Long Island I get into the city maybe once a year.

I would love to come... I hope that doesn't seem odd since I've only commented a handful of times! Would you be up for signing copies of books bought already, through Amazon?

I'd be happy to! In fact, a "bring your own book" signing isn't a half-bad idea.

I am from Massachusetts, so New York isn't entirely out of the question (though NYC is a big scary place for someone who usually drives everywhere!). Too bad they don't film you in Boston... we have several lovely independent bookstores (as well as the big, evil chains). Good luck with the early show---and I hope you can post the clip like you did the last time, since I don't watch TV.
HAVE FUN!

I'd go with the Borders on 57th and Park. Unfortunately, small booksellers are becoming an increasing rarity in this great city, and are especially rare in tourist-heavy Midtown. Also, there are shockingly few Starbucks around there (I work at 57th and Madison). There is one in Trump Tower and another at 56th and 6th and a VERY small coffee shop called Orens at 55th bw Madison and Park. One of the plus sides to Borders is that it does have a cafe, and does have a downstairs where I've been to quite a few readings/release parties.

Or the Strand?? www.strandbooks.com

Hey, I live in NYC and just finished reading your book. I read it in 3 days and absolutely loved it. I would be thrilled to meet you if you decide to do a reading on Wednesday night. Let us know!!

I've been stalking through the archives of your blog and I looove your writing and topics. Which is a first cause I'm very picky and judgmental sometimes (bad me!) And I love all your geeky references =D since I had always been the lone girl in the programming class since HS. I can't wait to pick up a copy of your book when I get home! Best of luck, and I hope you enjoy your stay in NY (def ride the bull!!!)
