Miriam: Are you stressed? me: nah Miriam: Just hung out with Fuller and Kakuda. Hearing stories of zeeTexas. Miriam: So when is the book due and how will it be promoted? Miriam: morbid curiosity. me: due tomorrow, will be released April, not sure about exactly what promotion will be involved but last time did a couple of radio interviews and three book signings/lectures and this time it's going to be considerably more extensive as this book will be much bigger and the buyers for the chains are interested in it, plus I'm ten times better known than back then and also have more outlets by which to promote it, publish excerpts, etc. Miriam: Wow. Good on you. Are you proud of what you've created? me: yep Miriam: Where did you go to college Mr. Brown? Miriam: morbid curiosity. Miriam: ha ha. me: UT for three months then got a writing gig and quit Miriam: Huh. Similar to me in a sense, got the Martha Stewart court illustration gig and had no reason to continue at Pratt. Neat. Miriam: So what do you do with yourself when you're done with the book and are waiting to promote it in April? Miriam: genuine curiosity. ha ha. Miriam: Let's hang out tonight. I'm bored. me: you can come over if you'd like me: I'm not stepping foot out of the house for another 20 hours or so Miriam: Yah, I think I will akshully. I'm bored and agitated.
