The Niagara Gazette is the hometown paper for Niagara Falls (as readers of WTGIB will learn if they aren't local), and they have chosen to add me to their coverage of Niagara writers. They include those who live there or once lived there, which is generous.
So an excerpt of the story will be published on Saturday, May 5th, and there will be a signing at 1 p.m. in Niagara's only surviving bookstore, the Book Corner. Now I have to make sure I have relatives to come by because I've learned how much of a beating one's ego takes sitting at a signing table when there're no interested readers. Perhaps I should buy a stack of girl scout cookies as a fall-back...
Seriously, I'm pleased. I hope some people decide to buy the book. In the end I don't expect to make money off this - in fact I make a very small percentage off this event, none if I calculate travel costs. So we'll use Hollywood accounting and charge the cost of the trip to visiting family. Which it also is.
Currently the book can be downloaded on Kindle, and purchased in paper from here. I'm expecting it to appear in paperback form on Amazon any time now. The Book Corner in Niagara Falls will have copies as of next Saturday.
