Perfect Edge Trifecta

The Perfect Edge Books blog tour has officially started! What is it? A tour in which blog posts about 3 Perfect Edge Books releases will be posted on various super-duper blogs over the next few weeks.

I’m telling you, Perfect Edge Books is going places. Big places. I’ve genuinely enjoyed and/or loved every book they’ve published so far in their short few months of existence. If you like my books, or like insightful, rough-around-the-edges, intelligent novels, then definitely check out Perfect Edge Books!

See the tour schedule below. I’ll be updating the dedicated The Perfect Edge Trifecta tour page as new posts are published. Be sure to check back often for updated links.

While you’re at it, head over to the blogs listed below and subscribe, why don’t ya? You’ll like them. They have good stuff to offer.

Perfect Edge Books was founded in late 2011 to unite authors whose books weren’t “obviously” commercial. Our books tend to sit in various genres all at once: literary fiction, satire, neo-noir, sci-fi, experimental prose. We believe that literary doesn’t have to mean difficult, and that difficult doesn’t just mean pointless. We prefer to cultivate a word-of-mouth approach to marketing, and keep production as simple as we can. Learn more at www.PerfectEdgeBooks.com.

I’ll be in Boston on March 7th, 2013 at the International Poster Gallery

Myself, along with Phil Jourdan, Michael Paul Gonzalez, Ben Loory, Cameron Pierce, and Kirsten Pierce will be reading at the famous International Poster Gallery on March 7th. You should be there. Seriously. I anticipate it will be quite the event. Read all about it at the Facebook Event Page: https://www.facebook.com/events/340073609438138/

Even cooler, you can embed the live stream on your blog or website. In fact, I would love you if you did. Simply paste either of the follow two code options to your website (it’s exactly the same as embedding any other YouTube video). Note that until the event goes live 6:00 EST on March 7th the video will probably give you an error or something. But once I click the broadcast button, the world will rejoice.

The AWP Conference in Boston is almost here. Are you going (to buy me a beer)?

I’ll be in Boston from March 6th – 8th for the annual AWP conference. If you’re there, maybe we can meet up. You can buy me a beer.

AWP stands for Association of Writers and Writing Programs. Writers? Writing? Of? is what one would say, if they were intrigued, so let’s pretend that you are. What is this AWP event? It’s an annual gathering of writer types from all over the world for a 3 day event that’s basically a giant literary circle jerk

I’ve attended 6 or 7 so far, sometimes to sign books or perform at a reading, sometimes as part of a panel, but most often as a regular conference-goer. It’s a lot of fun either way.

How does an author use YouTube? This Thursday, LIVE Hangout. I drink and act a fool with ePublish Unum! You can be a part of it.

Books and Beer hangout

It’s short notice, I know, but really you weren’t going to remember anyway.

THIS THURSDAY, December 20, I will be participating in the LIVE Google+ Hangout with Evo Terra and Jeff Moriarty of ePublish Unum and the Books & Beer Hangout.

Mark your calendars.

I’ll answer questions about how I use YouTube. More importantly, however, there will be a LIVE Q&A session where YOU can ask any question you want.

Total running time is only about 30 minutes, so I promise this won’t ruin your evening.

When:

6pm Pacific
8pm Central
9pm Eastern

Where:

Just click over to the ePublish Unum Google+ Page at the designated time. Can’t remember that? Just go to cjrlit.com/beerhangout and you’ll be immediately redirected to the proper place.
