A Web Site, a Book Trailer, and 12 Days Till Publication

ShimmerTheBook.com - A book trailer

ShimmerTheBook.com - A book trailer

There’s a trailer now, a preview basically, of Shimmer.

www.shimmerthebook.com

And it’s on a new Web site, although it’s basically just an address to host the trailer.

I like the trailer very much. I could say it’s not like the book, not technically accurate, in a hundred ways. But it is absolutely like the book, absolutely accurate in how it feels and what is captured, in a hundred more. And so I like it very much. Ridiculously enough, I still struggle to explain, quickly, what the book is about. But now I’ll just send people to the trailer.

Readings coming up:

Chattanooga, Rock Point Books, June 18th, 7 pm.
Memphis, Davis Kidd Booksellers, June 30, 6 pm.

You are invited. Your friends are invited. Their friends and their family and everyone you’ve ever known are invited.

Which sounds a little callous and self-interested. I hope not.

Technically, the book is now being sold via Amazon. And I saw it in Bookstar a few miles from home. And I’m doing a reading on the 18th. But, in truth, the book is still not really out, released, published, hasn’t arrived in every bookstore that will sell it, for a few more weeks. So, to some extent, I’m still holding back. Still waiting. Just a few weeks more.

Thanks for listening.
