We talk books and art and how to be happy when the world’s on fire (or not, maybe just what some nice books and art are even if happiness is impossible). There are breakout rooms that I might Zoom bomb with, uh, bad dad jokes.
Note that the start time for this event is 5:00pm pacific (8:00pm eastern).
Debutiful and Old Town Books invite you to discover three debut authors who will read from and discuss their books.

We’re doing this fun Saturday Brunch thing for Wordplay. Me and several other debut authors will be chatting books and brunch.
We’re going digital. A Zoom web event where I try hard as hell to hold up on stage next to Marlon James.
Because we still need and want and make art, we’re doing this anyway. Q&A on Instagram live, @booksaremagicbk !
I won’t actually be in the District, obviously, but we’re still gonna do an event! Politics and Prose has started doing live stream virtual readings, and that’s what we’re gonna do with this. I’ll post the event URL as soon as I have it.
The first time the book is alive in the world! Come and enjoy me making amateur mistakes since I know nothing about book events. At the end of the event I’ll be taking volunteers to break a shark out of Sea World*.
