Podcasting at the party

Meet Juliette, the official podcast station of The Streetwise Cycle. She's of Japanese origin, and her enclosure is constructed of a fine walnut-finish vinyl veneer.

This book began as a collection of short stories, but it quickly grew into a multimedia fiction project, including a podcast of the full book. At the publication party I'm going to try to recreate some of that online multimedia experience. 

To that end, this past weekend I took apart an old 8-track tape player and reconfigured it to play mp3s. When you're at the party, be sure to visit Juliette at the podcast listening station to hear an excerpt of the book. 

Can't wait? You can always download the full podcast right here.

"Drayman" now available online

Last year my very short story Drayman was published on CellStories, a terrific mobile-only storytelling site. Back then you could only read it on your cell phone or other mobile device. 

In response to complaints from friends ("But I want to read it on my computer"), I've posted the story as a Google doc. You can now read it online, or print it and take it with you. 

Happy reading!

I'm printing postcards for The Streetwise Cycle launch party on March 26. If you have a favorite bookstore, coffee shop, community center, infoshop or other hangout where you could post a card or two, let me know and I'll give you some. I'd be most grateful!

Here's a preview of the postcards:

It's amazing and exciting to watch what's happening in Egypt right now. Props to everyone there and around the world in the streets fighting for justice. 

And it's hard to believe I was in Egypt only a few weeks ago. What a wonderful place. Here's me with my book at the Luxor Temple.

Why hold a book launch party at a film center?

Publication party for The Streetwise Cycle will take place at the fabulous Echo Park Film Center on March 26. 

But why a book launch at a film center?

For one thing, EPFC is a very cool place and a great resource for the community. They screen independent films and provide training for people to create their own. Visit their website to learn more.   

It's also a perfect place for my book.
