Today, at Bella Stander’s, a number of fascinating “Publicity Terrible Tales” have been unleashed. My favorite: “The author who wouldn’t promote in Chicago because there was wind.”

I don’t know…”publicity terrible” sounds contradictory: terrible publicity may still be better than no publicity–NO publicity is REALLY terrible.
Though I guess there are limits to how much bad publicity is, um, good. Most of the stories described there sound more funny than terrible, at least to me.
At a booksigning I did, one of the people I talked with apparently thought we were on a date there and that we were gonna date afterward. Um…that was bizarre. Maybe some writers shouldn’t talk to readers too closely….
