Book Update

Hey everyone! We are working hard to get the book ready to go and are just waiting on the artwork now. I saw the almost finished cover art and I LOVE it. I'm really excited for you to see it too.
Right now the goal is to release Amateur Night at the Bubblegum Kittikat on Tuesday, May 14th, which is only two weeks away! I can't wait and I thank you all for your patience.
I'd like you all to know that I'm also currently (frantically) working on my next memoir which is tentatively titled Solid as a Rock, in reference to the old Ashford and Simpson song from my childhood, but I might end up changing it before it's over. I figure (hope) that once you finish Kittikat that you will love it so much that you'll want another book from me and I don't want you to have to wait too long.

Hey everyone, thanks for all the support on my decision to self-publish my book! I'm currently not blogging a lot because I am working on really creating a professional presentation and a few people asked about hard copies. Yes! There will be both hard copies and an ebook available so I have to format it twice, which is almost done and not as big of a deal to do as I had imagined. Compared to my master's thesis, it is a breeze. We are working on the artwork too, and this entails me having to go to a sex shop and actually purchase a pair of stripper shoes to photograph, which will then be returned to the store. Just don't even ask. Unfortunately I don't currently know any strippers who could lend me a shoe, although if I were still teaching I'm sure I could ask some of my students.
The second thing I'm doing is working on another book project because I figure once you get done with this memoir, you all are probably going to want another one, right? I was working on a book of Christmas essays that I got mostly finished, however I ran into a little bump in that road. It seems I can't write about Christmas unless it IS Christmas, so I guess I'm going to have to finish it up next year.
In the meantime, let me go work on my next book...
