Perks' book's first bookclub appearance

Perks · Aug 21, 2009

Ha! Just thought I would share a funny little development. My novel will being going out on submission here shortly, so I didn't know what to say when a friend of mine asked if her bookclub could run The Liar's Margin for their September reading.

I felt like such a diva - I had to clear it with my agent first. Lol! But she liked the idea, so I'll be invited down to Atlanta for a panel review at the end of September.

Gulp!

Wonderful news - how exciting, and I hope you relish your diva-ness. Enjoy! I'm thrilled for and with you, my friend.

At least two of us in that group will be veterans of the A Boy and His Taco reading.

I hope I get as good reviews as you did!

You like pickles that much, Wayne? Sometimes I worry about you...

A lot of people do.

Sending you a virtual tiara.

Careful when you're baking nekkid though.

Thanks everybody. I knew you'd understand.

How fun! Congratulations

wyntermoon · Aug 25, 2009

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Make sure you look appropriately writerly: glasses, patches on elbows (will be hard if you're naked but I'm sure you'll figure that out with strategic use of Super Glue), messy hair and pencils stuck in the bun. HAIR bun not the... oh forget it.
