Here are the upcoming dates for the paperback release of The Tao of Martha which I really had planned to post sooner, were it not for technical difficulties as explained in the long-ass header:

TUESDAY, MAY 6
BROOKLYN, NY
The Bookmark Shoppe
8415 3rd Ave
7:00 PM
Guidelines:
One copy of THE TAO OF MARTHA is encouraged to be purchased at The Bookmark Shoppe to enter the signing line.


FRIDAY, May 9
LAKE FOREST, IL
Re-Invent Gallery
202 Wisconsin Ave
6:00 - 9:00 PM
This is more of an art opening than a traditional signing. You'll be able to peruse the furniture I've refurbished and reinvented, based on what I've learned/implemented from my year of living Martha. Books will be available for purchase (as well as the furniture itself) and I'll be speaking at 7:30. But feel free to drop in at any time, and the exhibit will run for a week.
 
THURSDAY, MAY 15
HIGHLAND PARK, IL
Highland Park Public Library
494 Laurel Ave
7:00 PM
Books will be sold by The Book Stall.
Guidelines:
One copy of THE TAO OF MARTHA is encouraged to be purchased from The Book Stall to enter the signing line.

I have a couple of other events coming up in June, all of which include other FAB authors, with details to come. On June 10th, I'll be with Liz Fenton and Lisa Steinke for their wonderful new book Your Perfect Life in conjunction with the Lake Forest book store. On June 22nd, we're getting the band back together (I mean, if we had a band) with a City Winery event including Stacey Ballis, Amy Hatvany, Sarah Pekkanen, and Sarah Jio, organized by The Book Cellar. This is going to be epic!


As The Tao is the paperback release of last year's hardcover and since I've already been on the road for a couple weeks this year, I've opted out of touring in conjunction with this particular book. I'm traveling extensively over the summer (got my Global Entry and everything!) for the new memoir and am engaged in a lot of book-related projects, so doing a huge re-launch didn't gel with my deadlines.

Ultimately, skipping tour for The Tao is good because I'm going on a major tour next summer. So, if I don't see you in NY or the Chicago 'burbs this summer, I hope to see you next May!
