Cultural Studies, huh. I would have guessed etiquette books in Self-Help.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Hmm, intriguing how few copies each B&N store has.
Our store - not surprisingly - ordered far more. 89 to be exact. We sold 84 of them.
The event coordinator was going to contact Corporate to tell them how successful the event, and presumably sales, was. With any luck that'll translate into more copies in each store.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm waiting until the signing to get my copy for that very reason.

And it's always a nice way to thank whatever store chose to host us.

I am STILL waiting on my "same-day" delivery from BN.com (placed yesterday morning).

BTW, it turns out that the few unsold copies at B&N weren't actually readily available to the public. It turns out we had people looking for copies. We actually sold out.

I went looking for Jilli's book at the downtown B&N - polarbearin' Borders insists it won't be out until July 1 ... at which time they'll probably label it out of print - and there it was - on a front table. I got the last copy.

That's interesting. I'm going to let my publicity munchkin and editor know about that. That's what they're for, right? That, and for me to send photos to of the guy who had me sign his chest last night.

Oh, I'm sorry I missed that. I think.
