I can't promise that there will be penis cake and a male stripper like there was at my 2007 book release party ... BUT YOU NEVER KNOW!
Offbeat Bride Book Re-Release Partay!
March 6th, 2010
2pm - 5m
Elliott Bay Books
101 South Main Street
Seattle WA
Seattle book nerds already know that this will be one of the last readings at Elliott Bay's venerable Pioneer Square location. They're moving to Capitol Hill in mid-March, so this is a great opportunity to take one last walk across their creaky wood floors.
I would LOOOOOVE to meet some of you there — I'm hoping this can be a good excuse for an OBB/OBT meet-up. Andreas and Tavi will be in attendance of course ... and maybe Megan will even fly up from Los Angeles. (Sadly Shrie won't be there because she's going to be out of town at, yes, A WEDDING.)
If you think you can make it, please oh please RSVP!

Any chance of a Vancouver stop?
OffbeatAriel said
Nope.
With a newborn at home, planning additional events just isn't in the cards. Plus, honestly? Readings are pretty stressful. The last time I read in Vancouver, exactly 10 people showed up — and 8 of them were my friends.

Well, if you change your mind, I've turned about 20 friends on to your book/site, so I could probably bump up your numbers significantly!
I any case, best of luck with the launch!

I wish I could be there. If you are not going to Vancouver I guess it is unlikely you will come to Auckland NZ! Although you never know…

That's the day before my birthday (go numero 28!) and I seriously hope to be there

1. I am so bummed Elliot Bay Books is moving. It seems like blasphemy.
2. I swear I ordered the new addition from amazon and was waiting for it but they sent me the old edition. I didn't have the patience to send it back and wait for another one. Do you have description of what's new?

I'm super excited! I'm making it a date with at least one of my engaged friends, and I look forward to meeting more of you there!
Any chance we can stage a sit in and not let Elliott Bay move? Ok, I know that would actually hurt more than help, but who doesn't want to camp out in Elliott Bay?

how on earth did I miss this? I'm sitting here thinking it's irritating that I'm going to miss your reading in San Fran, being that I live in Seattle and lo and behold, I missed your reading here. sigh.
