Wedlocked: A Novel Book Signing at Book Revue in Huntington, NY
Continuing the successful promotion of her recently released book, Wedlocked: A Novel, author Bonnie Trachtenberg will be conducting a book signing at Book Revue in Huntington, NY.
The signing is scheduled for Thursday, October 13, 2011 at 7:00 pm. Book Revue is located at 313 New York Avenue, Huntington, NY. Wine, cheese and refreshments will be served. Trachtenberg will speak, read excerpts and answer questions about herself and her book, a romantic comedy based on her first, brief and calamitous marriage:
Wedlocked is the humorous, engaging tale of Rebecca Ross, a struggling actress who lets years of disappointment and heartache catapult her into a disastrous marriage and onto a hilariously hellish honeymoon.
I'd like to invite all members of "She Writes" to visit my writers forum. I would really appreciate your support and, if you choose to make them, your comments on my posts. Thanks!
Many thanks to Eliza Cross for the thoughtful interview.
"You’ve published fiction, nonfiction, books, essays, short stories, poetry and more," Eliza asks. "Somehow you’ve managed to cross all of these genres while still maintaining a very distinctive “brand.” Was that a conscious marketing decision or a natural evolution of who you are and what you like to write? Or both?"
Please RSVP (Attendees Only): mdoallas[at]aol.com by October 1.
