This Thursday: World AIDS Day

Please join me on World AIDS Day, when I’ll be reading from and signing copies of my debut novel, Songs for the New Depression, and doing a Q&A on the book. As most of you know, the novel was loosely inspired by my partner, Shane Sawick, who died from AIDS om 1995, and in his honor, as well as all those lost to AIDS, I will be donating 30% of the book event sales to AIDS Services Foundation/Orange County.Books will be available for purchase at the event, by cash or check, in both hardcover ($23.99) and paperback ($15.99), plus tax.The event takes place on Thursday December 1st, beginning at 7:00PM, in the sanctuary of Church of the Foothills, which is located at 19211 Dodge Ave (cross street Newport), Santa Ana, CA 92705-2236.  Hope to see you there! (Even if you’re not in the O.C. area, please post on your facebook wall and share with others!)P.S. The Kindle version is now available at Amazon and the Nook version is up at BarnesandNoble.com. If you have other favorite e-Bookstores, let me know and I’ll make sure they’re carrying it!
