Kinky for a Cause this Saturday

I warned you, Meltingpot Readers, that I would now be using this space to keep folks updated on my public appearances. Not to worry, I'm not that famous so these little promotional updates will not occur all that often.

But...

For those of you living in the Philadelphia area, I am encouraging you to come out to the Rittenhouse Square Barnes and Noble (1805 Walnut Street) tomorrow February 20, between 2-4p.m. I will be participating in a group reading with Philadelphia authors, Solomon Jones and Muriel Feelings (the great children's book author). We'll each be reading from our work and then having a Q&A session.

The reading is part of an all-day benefit at B&N in support of one Philadelphia's most amazing arts organizations, called Art Sanctuary. Founded by one of my literary heroes, Lorene Cary, Art Sanctuary is one of those organizations that supports the arts, helps kids appreciate the arts, and puts on really great festivals and shows with almost no money. They are so amazing. So as I was saying, if you come to Barnes and Noble tomorrow and buy anything in the store, a portion of your dollars spent will go to Art Sanctuary. How's that for easy?

So whether or not you really want to see me, you should still come out and support the arts.

Hope to see you there.

Peace!

That is very cool. Hope it went well! If I lived nearby, hey, I would have loved to stop over and say "hi!" :)
