The wife and I went to Monica Drake‘s book release party last night at Mississippi Pizza. Man, that is one popular writer. The place was packed.
Unfortunately, the wife, being five months pregnant and all, had a wave of nausea run through her, and not wanting to ruin the reading with a jet of vomit, we exited stage left. We did stay long enough to hear Monica tell a comedic story about arriving in a hospital in a clown suit, and being subsequently carted off to the Psych Ward. This fits into the Things Authors Write About That You Really Want to Know If It Really Happened category.
