Its been 9 months since I moved back to Manhattan, and I’ve really been missing my friends and family down in stunning South Florida. That is why I’m launching my “MINI MIAMI BOOK TOUR!” Catch me signing copies of “101 Ways to Torture Your Husband” on Thursday, June 17th at Borders in Merrick Park from 11am-2pm, and then on Saturday, June 19th, 2-4pm at Borders in Dolphin Mall! Its Father’s Day Weekend, so I get to see my Dad (Love You Daddy!) and hopefully sign lots of books too! Men shouldn’t be offended by the way.. remember, my book is just for laughs and shouldn’t be taken seriously! –At least not too seriously. Hee Hee

The very prestigious “Book Revue” in Huntington, NY is hosting my next book signing THIS SATURDAY, Feb 20th at 7pm. I’ll be speaking for 15 minutes, followed by a Q&A session, and then we’ll have the signing. The Book Revue is one of the few non-chain bookstores left, and it been a book signing stop for big names like Bill Clinton, Martha Stewart, Jackie Collins –and now Maria Garcia-Kalb! lol Who would’ve thought? I hope to meet many wonderful supporters that night… see you there!
Hempstead Town Hall hosted a lovely Valentine’s Wedding event, with Supervisor Kate Murray marrying new couples, and was honored to have existing couples renew their vows as well. The Supervisor happens to be a big fan of “Torture,” and asked me to be part of the celebrations, providing the brides with a “special manual” to help them along… (wink wink) Check out the pictures below:
