Calling All Literate Austinoids!

Gentle Reader, if you live in Austin and you like to read (and you must if you keep coming back here to read my long-winded ramblings), then you must join me and the boys tomorrow night (yep, Wednesday night) starting at 7 PM at Book People.

"Why ever should I do that?" you ask?

Because a friend and former coworker, Patrice Sarath, will be in da house signing copies of her new book, Gordath Wood. Patrice also promises, "Food, fun, a little reading, a little signing — and a little horse play." Now how can you miss something like that?

No, really. Give me one good reason, Gentle Reader, why you could let yourself miss something this nifty. Don't make me count to three before you spit out your reason.

But seriously, if you read this little 'ol rant-and-ramble fest 'o mine and live anywhere near Austin, hop in the car, hop on your bike, hop on the bus, strap on your skates or do whatever you must to make it to Book People tomorrow. If you have a valid reason for not being at Book People tomorrow night (perhaps you don't live anywhere near Austin), then you can order a copy online. Or you can sweet talk me into buying you a copy and getting it signed tomorrow night.

By the way, if you want to learn more about Patrice and read an excerpt from Gordath Wood, visit her blog. It's way better than this crapfest.

See you all Wednesday night! If not, I'll hunt you down like the dogs you are!
