Selling My Books on the Streets of Brooklyn 9/5 - Timing

My literary angel, Victoria/January Valentine, has published a second novel, Sweet Dreams, In the Mind of a Serial Killer, hot on the heels of her fiery romance, Love Dreams, which is doing well at Amazon. Here's a synopsis of the former: "A serial killer is on the loose, moving up the East Coast, leaving bodies & notes . . . Planting roses in his victims. Leonardo Gibraldi, Baltimore’s sexy Assistant DA, is tracking the fiend who’s responsible for the grisly murder of his ex-girlfriend. Leo’s out for revenge — so is the killer. Between hunting the madman, and fighting off beautiful women, Leo’s got his hands full. There's one break in the case: An eye witness who says, “It doesn’t look human.”
Can't go wrong with goombah hero. Best of luck, V.

The rain held off all morning, then started about noon, about an hour after I'd set up shop. I'd hauled out one less crate, so it wasn't hard to get all the books to safety. I then took just a copy each of Killing, Adjustments and A Hitch in Twilight to the rear of the Sheepshead Bay train station. I was testing the waters, as I was chased from there more than a year ago by a police officer. I hoped I'd get away with it if it looked like promotion instead of commerce. It was a lonely vigil. Only one person inquired. I was pretty bummed out, especially since I may not be doing any book selling tomorrow, as a friend needs someone to accompany her to the doctor mid day. Then I found great news on Facebook. Marilena, whose dad was one of my teachers in the ninth grade at Lafayette H.S., has been reading Adjustments. She wants two copies for friends, one of whom is a coach. I will be meeting her at the Spumoni Gardens Friday evening. Every so often the artist's life needs a shot in the arm. The timing was perfect.
