Selling My Books on the Streets of Brooklyn 3/5

It's my pleasure to announce the release on Kindle of a romance novel by my literary angel, January (Victoria) Valentine, Love Dreams. I had the privilege of editing it. It will soon be in print as well. Here's a synopsis:
The grisly past is dead and buried in Canada, still Sienna is chased by her ex, who is now a ghost. Michael is in for a wild ride when he falls for her, a grin on his handsome face, pain beneath his muscled abs. Can he go head to head with his competition, cunning Dr. Trainer and his private jet, when he's in a wheelchair? Michael's teen delivery boy turned confidante, coaches Michael through misery and blunders, accidentally sending him to into a second surgery when he slams him with his motorcycle. Will the confidence and sensuality she regained thanks to Trainer and London follow Sienna back home to Connecticut, and Michael's arms? Who will be the winner in this battle of sweet heat and damaged souls? Sensual contemporary romance. Not erotica.

Good luck, V.
Last night I was channel hopping and came upon a 2008 concert featuring my favorite party band, the B52s, on PBS. I'd had no idea they'd gotten back in the game, releasing their first album of new material since 1992, Funplex. It was a fun show. Original members Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson are no longer the sleek hipster goddesses they were, but they sing as well as ever. Pierson was particularly impressive on the highs of Planet Clare ("She drove a Plymouth Satellite - faster than the speed of light."). Front man Fred Schneider looks a lot older but is still first rate. I always believed their original guitarist, the late Ricky Wilson, Cindy's older brother, was under-rated. I loved his work on the early songs. Upon his death, drummer Keith Strickland picked up the ax. My favorite B52s song has become Good Stuff, from the 1992 album of the same name. It is a marvel of funk. Here's a video of an edited version. The original ran longer than six minutes.

I thank the kind folks who purchased books on Avenue Z & East 13th today, especially the woman who bought the huge tome on home medical remedies. What a relief not to have to carry it any more.
