Wednesday, NYC
June 22nd, 2006 | Uncategorized
It’s a good thing I’ve been blogging this tour because otherwise I’m not sure I’d remember it. Today I had a podcast, two signings, and a long, intense newspaper interview with a woman who did her doctoral dissertation on autobiographical comics. One signing was just a quick drop-by at the Oscar Wilde Memorial Book Shop, the pole star by which I orient myself in New York City. Where they had this cool countertop display for my book which I hadn’t seen before. It’s a little die-cut house. Then I hung out at Bluestockings, a radical bookstore on the lower east side that sells books on everything from feminism and gender stuff to black liberation and democracy studies. I hung out in front of the “alternative menstrual products” and talked to people and signed books.

Ooo, ooo – where will the podcast be?
I’ve done a couple podcasts so far, but they’re not up yet. I’ll keep ya posted as soon as they’re online.
I have been following most of the links to lesbian bookstores and they are wonderful! I wonder if anyone has travelled and compiled a list/book of them for people who want to find one on their travels? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Somehow it’s fitting seeing the Brokeback Mountain dvd sitting next to the Fun Home book. They don’t have a pretty countertop display (I want one!) but they are offering an exclusive bandana! 🙂
I’ve been viewing the blog from a fan’s point of view; hadn’t occurred to me that it is yet another way for you to journal the events of your life. seems you’ve done just about every form of journaling . . . and created some new forms along the way (ie: the video while driving).
Something about the underlining of the word “exclusive” with regard to the bandana being offered with copies of Brokeback Mountain strikes me as hilarious/ridiculous. Free EXCLUSIVE bandana! Okay, then!
