The bookstore in Manhattan where I'll be reading
I found a passage to read on Wednesday that will not require me to do an embarassingly bad English accent. Actually I can do pretty decent English accents, but they have to come to me, usually with the help of several drinks. All the characters’ voices are in my head… but they don’t sound the same on my lips.
So, next week I will be all drawl. And no sex scenes.
Wednesday, May 11, 7pm, Tribeca Barnes & Noble, 91 Warren Street, NY NY, 212 587 5389
Saturday, May 14, 3pm, Bookhampton, 20 Main Street, Sag Harbor
Amusingly, the Hamptons reading is with other “mystery” authors such as Lorenzo Carcaterra, and is titled “Tough Guys Talk the Talk and Write the Walk.”
Really? And they booked me?
“Yes, I’m… I’m here to represent the pale, consumptive, anglophile contingent.”
If things get tough, maybe I will vomit blood on them.
