Not much going on. The proofs got sent back to the printer. The galleys have been corrected. Postcards, letterhead, and business cards (thank you, PSPrint , iPrint , and VistaPrint, respectively) have been ordered. We'll be ready for the media blitz when the galleys arrive.
In the meantime, I'm still scheming to get into Dragoncon's activity roster. They announced today that they'll be holding a film festival. We need to convince them that we fit into their grand plan. A movie book launch would be a natural fit. I'm working up the energy to write a really great pitch letter to the grand poobah, but that takes a lot of work and enthusiasm. Somewhere I read that selling a book is really secondary to selling one's self, and at this point I see what they mean.
On the tube:Good Eats was pretty funny the other night. Alton had some actress play a rabid GE fan, a la Stephen King's Misery. It was the second potato episode, so he made potato soup, potato salad, and roesti.
Bought my ticket
Speaking of Alton Brown, I decided to head up to Atlanta for the book signing anyway. Christina can't come with me, but you know what they say about absence and hearts and all that. I'll be there from the evening of May 8th till the 12th. I'll say "hi" to AB for you.
