C-SPAN and Maine Public Radio

A couple of weeks ago C-SPAN video taped my book event at The Water Street Bookstore in Exeter, NH. You can see the equipment in the photo ready to roll. The talk will be aired on Book-TV shortly. Check their website for the times on the weekends. I'll also post the times here when I know the dates.

Yesterday I had an interview with Irwin Gratz on Maine Public Radio. Irwin is superb. The interview will air sometime next week on his show "Morning Edition". Check the listings on their website. The aired interview will only be 7 or 8 minutes but the full interview (about half an hour) will be available on their website at the same time. I'll post a link when I have it.

Maine- Portland and Augusta

This is going to be a busy week. Friday, November 25 I will be joining 24 other Maine writers at the Portland Public Library to sign books. We'll be there from 12-3. What a great opportunity to meet all these Maine authors and to "Buy Local." What better holiday gift than an autographed book from a Maine author. This event is a collaboration between Maine Writers and Publishers, Longfellow Books, and the Portland Public Library. Thank you to all for organizing this exciting event.

On Saturday, November 26 I will travel to Augusta to give a short talk and sign books at Barnes and Noble. This event will start at 1 pm. Hope to see a lot of Maine Facebook friends there.

I will also be at the Water Street Bookstore in Exeter, NH tomorrow night at 7pm. C-SPAN will be on hand to film this event. If you're nearby you might find this to be an interesting event. If you're not in the area I'll be posting the air dates once I have them.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.
