If you're not a lawyer and you're on a billboard you've made it! - Charlie Day
MADE IT IN MANHATTAN
My publisher sent me this and I was so excited I was SHAKING. As my dad used to say, I’m so happy I have a headache!!! NEW YORK, NEW YORK, I LOVE YOUUUUUU and YOU LOVE ME TOOOOOOO!!!! My name in lights!!! My goodness. I can’t even believe it.
I really really want to go to NYC to see it in person. But I am exhausted. I just threw a book festival AND senior prom (the pre-party and all the prep but STILL). I have so many meetings this week. I have deadlines. ARRGHHHHH! Why can’t I just go to NYC??
Update: I went to NYC!!!! My kid and I took the redeye and stayed with my brother and his family.
Here I am in front of the billboard! With the Empire State Building in the back! WHOA!
And here I am with kid, my brother and his kids:
So that’s pretty cool. My NYC billboard made me nostalgic for the other billboards in my past:
So it was nice to mark the occasion, and here I will remind myself to post a link to ordering the book! When Stars Align was inspired by my lifelong devotion to tabloid magazines and loving the celebrities who bring us so much entertainment! Thanks to everyone who sent their reviews, we are shipping out books this week! Thanks for your patience!
Oh and a Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there! I spoil myself everyday so don’t wait for anyone to spoil you! All I ask on Mother’s Day is a funny hand-drawn card from my family while I buy myself the most exorbitant gift on my list at that moment. My love language: laughter and indulgence. My gift of course has not arrived because I didn’t order it in time. Oh well, it’s shipping!!!!!
XOXO
