Doug Jones was interviewed on This Week with Bob Mueller for the TV show that will air this weekend, 6:00 Saturday night (also 9:00 Sunday morning) on Channel 2, WKRN. Bob Mueller interviews Nashville’s movers and shakers (Do you like that, Doug?) about politics and things that are happening locally. Doug is an attorney who is knowledgeable about state politics, but I’ll just bet he gets to put in a few words about A Season of Darkness.
Signing at Maury County Library 2/19/11
Our new best friend Julie Gillen has arranged for us to do a signing in Columbia on Saturday, February 19, 1:30-2:30. I call Julie our new best friend because we just met her in November at the Oxford Creative Nonfiction Conference, but she has become the most wonderful supporter of A Season of Darkness. She’s also a talented writer whose articles appear in The Daily Herald in Columbia, and, yes, she’s giving us a shout-out there, too. Since she has a million friends, we are expecting a large audience next Saturday. Doug and I hope we’ll have some friends there, too!
Wayne County News
Someone emailed me and told me that there is an article in the Wayne County News about A Season of Darkness. There is something about having your hometown newspaper publish an article about you. It is very gratifying.
Sisters in Crime
It was a fun evening, meeting with Sisters in Crime to talk about A Season of Darkness. Thank you, Beth Terrell-Hicks, for inviting me. The lively group, like so many Nashvillians, had followed the Marcia Trimble case and were ready with good questions and comments.
A nice endorsement
Another post from Jamie Mason of Authorscoop.com. (You’ll have to scroll down to the middle of the page.) Thanks, Jamie! Glad you enjoyed A Season of Darkness.
Barnes & Noble Writers Night
Please join Doug Jones and me at Barnes & Noble, Cool Springs, on Wednesday, Jan. 26, at 7:00. We have been invited to be the “Writers Night” writers, speaking about A Season of Darkness. We look forward to meeting other writers, as well as readers!
Buy your books at Bookman/Bookwoman!
Today we had a great book signing at Saralee and Larry Woods’s delightful store. And they had plenty of books! Though they sold a bunch, there are still copies available. So if you need a copy of A Season of Darkness, Bookman/Bookwoman in Hillsboro Village is the place to go. I could have browsed for hours!
Signing at Bookman-Bookwoman
Doug Jones and I will be at Bookman-Bookwoman in Hillsboro Village on Saturday, Jan. 15, at 2:00, signing A Season of Darkness. Thanks to Larry and Saralee Woods for inviting us to their bookstore and for the good publicity for our book on Tuesday. They appeared on Channel 5’s Talk of the Town in a segment: “Best New Reads for the New Year.”
The Scene and the Tennessean
Coincidentally, A Season of Darkness made both the Scene and the Tennessean today. We did a taping for “More at Midday” to be shown on Channel 4 tomorrow, December 31, at 12:30 p.m. A good way to end the year!
