world domination couldn’t wait! my book is available right.this.second!
Apparently, everyone is panting for World Domination (and why wouldn’t they be??!) I’ve just discovered that my book is available, RIGHT NOW, RIGHT THIS MOMENT, to be shipped to your little home, office, igloo, what have you. Right now, you have the opportunity to have my memoir in your little hands, paws, hooks.
Over the next month, I’ll be touring like mad. I’ll be live chatting on Gather, getting some mommy blogger love, and praying that people dig the book, that my mother won’t suddenly resurface after an eleven year silence, and that I won’t spontaneously howl at bookstore events.
So, for the love of Sophie, buy now! buy now! Click on any of these fine online retailers & please keep my kitty in the organic lifestyle that she’s grown accustomed.

oh, yippee! you’re coming to Portland to read (and in Portland it’s okay to spontaneously howl at readings).
i read the excerpt from your book on this site, and it’s just the overly engrossing distraction i need as i struggle to confront my own mar 1 manuscript deadline…will order it up right away!
enjoying your blog and looking forward to hearing you tell your story in person. congratulations, by the way, it’s a milestone to actually hold the finished product in hand!

I just checked Amazon and they show a ship date of February 5th — can’t wait!

Lisa-Hey there! That’s for you fab folks who have pre-ordered. Apparently, folks who are ordering today are getting them within two days. Weird!
Lisa-Thanks so much for the sweet words!! Please introduce yourself at the reading so I can squeal for good measure!

Hey yeah! I too ordered it in November and my ship date says the first Week of February! Maybe I can complain my way into getting Amazon to send it out sooner! I’m a good whiner.
Can’t wait to read it. I’m hoping to use the book in my teaching this year.

Rob,
I totally heart you, you know this right?! I’m still swooning over the collage you sent in a major way. Two words: BETTE DAVIS! HELLO??!!

Felicia — If I just cancel the pre-order and immediately reorder there’s no downside to that, is there?
January 17th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
I don’t think so! Go for it! Instant gratification
Or order one more for a friend! a pet!

just got mine at Powell’s! There was only one copy on the shelf, although on their website they list something like 25 on order or in the warehouse. I’ll dig into it tonight!!
btw, the cover is gorgeous. i love the shadowy blue backdrop to the bridge, and the matte vellum texture of the paper. congrats again-

Patricia-I know! I bought ten newsstands copies!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOT!

I saw it on EBay awhile ago – and wasn’t sure if they were bootleg copies or what – I just know I want the real McCoy! And signed by the real McCoy! And I’ve got 3 more friends that want signed copies!

Tracie-WOOT!! We’re going to have so much fun at the party!

as I am reading it, my first thought was “will her mother resurface?”
you write so well, I’m glad I’m getting to review it!

Rachel – thank you!!!! For my sake and sanity, I hope she doesn’t. xoxo, f.
