Crooners & Songbirds: A Night of Songs from the Beginning of The Modern Era
Cowboys, Hobos & Ramblers - Out Where the Coyotes Wail!
8pm: Megan Lynch is a dazzling urbanite who found herself appointed by Hedley Lamarr to be the new sheriff of Rock Ridge. Concerned with fitting in, she learned how to add eggs to her coffee and yodel along with the natives. Pardner Kelly McCubbin plays a mean uke and holds down the basso continuo. [link]
9pm: Toshio Hirano whups some classic Jimmie Rodgers blue yodeling on y'all. [link]
Crooners & Songbirds is a monthly cabaret featuring the vocal jazz, blues and popular music of the dawn of The Modern Era.
LA-istas! I'm going to be in your area from the 12th through the 17th, visiting a friend, and would love to meet up with anyone who wants to get together. My profile address is good. (I arrive late on the 12th and leave early on the 17th.)
NYCistas -- tonight is the premiere of the remounted production of Twelfth Night: The Drinking Game, produced by and starring my sister Megan. It's a fantastic show if anyone is free on Fridays at 8 for the next 6 weeks.
Free to a good home, Ikea fingerpuppets. One is missing in the pic, but I think it's around here somewhere. They'd be great for a kid or anyone who needs some visualization aids for their world domination plotting. First one to e-me at my profile addy gets them.
And the puppets have found a home.
Chicago-areaistas:
I have a long-term, contract position available at my company starting immediately. We need someone with outstanding internet research, interviewing, and writing skills to work on a project 40 hours/week for 6-7 months. What we're really looking for is someone with solid journalism skills, particularly with a business writing focus.
If you or anyone you know is interested, they can check out our web site at www.sponsorship.com and submit a resume to me at kmartinATsponsorshipDOTcom.
Thanks much!!
Buffista dog owners, if you buy Diamond brand dog food please be aware that there is a recall in effect due to aflatoxin poisoning. Here's the appropriate article at Snopes: [link]
From the article: "This chemical is a potent toxin that attacks the liver. It stays in the system for a long time, and symptoms of aflatoxin-caused liver damage can takes weeks to appear, so dogs that have eaten any of the contaminated products should be tested."
There's a new lesson up at Gothic Charm School.
Julie Benz is guesting in tonight's episode of
Supernatural.
My agent has asked me to come up with an informal 'net marketing plan for my book to send to the editors who have expressed interest in it.
So! I'm asking my friends, friends of friends, anyone who is interested in my book, to help with ideas.
Let me know if you're willing to plug my book on your site! I can probably do a handful of giveaways, and send out another handful for review.
I get a little wonky about self-promotion, it's not something I'm asking for, lightly. I'm used to cheerleading for others.
If you're willing to generously give me a plug, let me know how many hits your site averages per month so I can include that in the marketing plan.
Also, I apologize for leaning. I hate asking for such things. It's just that I think it could tip the balance in my favor towards someone buying if I can prove I can be my own cheerleader, and I want this more than I've ever wanted anything in my whole life, so I'm bracing myself and asking for help.
Help?
