I’m going to be reading at an Inside Storytime event for “Bad Girls” novelists on Thursday October 19 from 7-9 pm at the Rickshaw Stop in San Francisco (only those over 21 are admitted, as alcohol is served). More info at www.insidestorytime.com
I’m not sure if the authors or our book heroines are supposed to be “bad” — but it’s cool either way. Even though Ashley, my novel’s main character isn’t bad, she definitely is willful and has attitude, at least in the beginning. Hey, a little ‘tude isn’t bad. Keeps us from being doormats, right?
Anyway, here’s the nitty-gritty: BAD GIRLS on October 19th, 7 - 9 pm, at San Francisco’s Rickshaw Stop, an all-female event, is really going to rock! Come see Cameron Tuttle, the original bad girl behind the Bad Girl’s Guide series, which have sold over a million copies; Famous author Jennifer Solow, author of the national bestseller The Booster, guest MC standup comic Mary Van Note, first place winner of the 2006 Twisted Biscuit competition; Melodie Bowsher will read from the bad girl novel of the season, My Lost and Found Life; Kathi Kamen Goldmark, founder of the Rock Bottom Remainders, a rock group that also includes Amy Tan and Stephen King; and Wendy Merrill will read from Falling Into Manholes, just sold to Putnam.
