We have received real-life, actual copies of the book. Well, my mom has--I will see them soon. But she says they look great. She's had this experience plenty of times (though I'm sure it never gets old), but I can't wait to see a finished copy of my own book!
I should probably "act like I've been there before," shouldn't I?
Screw that, I'm psyched!

Weakly
Our Publisher's Weekly review is here. (In the mystery section, a little over halfway down the page.) I guess PW giveth but taketh away, too. The review starts out good, but ends saying that some parts of our book act like a rain delay in the middle of a Sox-Yanks game. And they don't even mention the fact that a blog runs through the whole book!
Anyway, I guess it's good that they start with the good--if I know people, they only read the first sentence of anything before they go and check their myspace or whatever.
And by the way--I love rain delays! I'm like Brer Rabbit to that reviewer: I was born in a rain delay. If you can't find the beauty in this:
or this:
or this:
or this:
or this:
or this:
...then you've got problems.

[Also note PW shows an October 29th pub date--I still don't know the exact date, but it should be earlier than that. Stay tuned.]

Outdoor Blogging
Click here for our great review in the Hartford Courant! (Note: The Courant doesn't let you see old links--try here for the cached version of the review.)
We've had some others recently, which I will post on the right side soon. My girlfriend and I have just moved to Providence, and we won't have internet until Thursday. So right now I'm sitting in the back yard in the dark, since this is the only place I can get a signal on my laptop. It's weird being on the computer and seeing a shadowy figure appear at your feet. I think it was a possum. I'm goin' inside....
