Frankly, the title of this post says most of what you need to know. At 7:00pm on Friday, December 2 (that’s First Friday, for all of you Chestertonians), we will be doing a talk/reading/Q&A/signing, etc. at Chestertown’s own Bookplate where, almost exactly five years ago, we gave our first-ever reading as Idiots’Books.

Back then, we had no idea what we were doing and no inkling that our odd experiment in self-publishing would live to see a five-year anniversary. Today, we still have no idea what we’re doing, but we intend to spend an hour or so talking about it anyway.

If precedent holds, it will look something like this (plus 30lbs or so around Robbi’s midsection).

We’d love to see you there, if only to keep it from looking like this.

We will, of course, tell you about this again and again, but for those of you whose holiday season calendars are filling quickly, here’s your first warning.
