Northampton Reading!

[susanstinson]

Hey, so it looks like I'm reading during Pride week in Northampton at Pride&Joy on Sunday, May 2. And that means that the book should be showing up in the store there soon, before the official publication date. I hope Flaunt It! shows up in force, and everybody else, too! Stay tuned for details...

And I just got a great review from Richard Labonte's syndicated column, BookMarks -- the April 26 column. The review begins, "The magic of this elegant novel is that it embraces both the surreal and the so real with sublime charm."

Whenever anybody even comes close to bringing up the sublime in reference to my work, it makes me very happy. Wheeheee, here goes...

Hi! Hold the phone, the Northampton date looks like it's changing to Wednesday, May 5... to be confirmed.

I know, I've been wanting to read Dish It Up Baby, too, as soon as I have time to take a breath! I'd like to read in Boston -- Karen has said she'd check with New Words and all, but nothing is set up yet...

And I hear that we're both going to New Orleans. I'm excited about that, since I've never been. It'll be great to meet you.

I know! I'm suuuuper excited about New Orleans. It's been ages since I've been down there so it should be a fun trip all around. You might drop a note to Jaclyn Friedman at New Words. I think her email is on their web site, but if not lemme know and I'll hunt it up for you. She organizes most of the readings for them and is incredibly nice/helpful/interesting.
