HAMBURGER GETS A HELPER BUT I HAVE TO MULTI-TASK EVERYTHING...

...with apologies to Fran Lebowitz for paraphrasing her in the post title. You may remember me referring once or twice over the spring and summer to a new book I was working on. Not the poetry one, that's still in the works - this is the second volume of rock and roll/pop culture trivia. The book has been out for a week or so, but I just got the final cut of the book trailer yesterday. And today the first responses to the press release are coming in, about a dozen before lunch! Whoot! I'm suddenly in a whirlwind of activity sending out review copies, booking radio interviews, and jotting down notes so I won't get nervous on air and sound like a total dork. That's a lot for my baby boomer/dyslexic brain to organize and keep track of (we really should have our own special parking sticker.) Not that I'm complaining, mind you. It's also a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to talking to a bunch of oldies DJs. But I may need to take some time away from blogging to get it all done. I miss everyone when I don't make my rounds, and I'll try to get back here for the next Skywatch. Meanwhile, here's the trailer. It's also posted on my sidebar, along with the one from the first music book and the cat/dog vids.

THE VIDEO BAR IS NOW OPEN


Finally, I managed to get my most recent little video project uploaded (with some help from my friends!) to YouTube, and have also successfully installed a Blogger video bar on the side margin here. All this technical accomplishment may go to my head...naw. Anyway, please do have a view sometime when you want a giggle. There's one for dog lovers and cat/movie lovers. And there's also the book trailer for my first volume of rock 'n' roll trivia (2007). I'm currently working on the second book/trailer, which should both be ready in a few weeks. I'll post the new trailer on my YouTube channel, too, so I'm guessing it'll turn up in the video bar as well. Meanwhile, I'm going to relax and bask in the glow of actually not having to call the mobile computer geek guy to help me figure it out. To a computer-challenged person like me, nothing feels better!
