Offbeat Bride | Events

Offbeat Bride in the flesh! Get in touch If you’d like to host an author event in your hometown. I promise to not only haul my ass to your city, but also to bring hula hoops, a tiara, and abounding hugs (if you like hugging — otherwise I promise not to touch you).

Seattle photographer Ben Haley (who’s wedding story is told in the first chapter of the book) has followed me around to many of my offbeat readings here in town, documenting the whole strange process.

I love the pictures he’s snagged of tiara-ed and be-veiled listeners, merch displays, and of course the puppet. Check ‘em all out.

I have lots of readings coming up — several in the Seattle area, of course, but also scheduled events in NYC (March 3rd), Washington DC (March 4th), and Portland (June 11th). I’m working on Vancouver BC, Los Angeles, and San Francisco for April and May. Check out the event listings for more details, and if you want to come to the NYC or DC events, be sure to let me know so I can get you on the evites!

(Thanks to yelahneb for this photo — and many others!)

Last night was the book release party for Offbeat Bride and it was a blast! You can see photos over here. For those of you in the Seattle area who weren’t able to make it, I have a ton of readings coming up in the next week and I would love to see you. Check ‘em out over here.

Another offbeat event for those in the northwest:

I will probably bring my hula hoops and hoop outside the store for a bit, too.
