I bet that got you intrigued! (At least I hope so.)
In any case, I have done a couple amazing things, if I do say so myself.
One, I have managed to have some incredibly passionate book readings. I don’t just mean reading sex scenes from Kiss the Sky (as I did at BEA and Bird ‘n Beckett books in SF, actually). I mean discovering the delight in letting the written word flow trippingly off the tongue while reading live. I almost mistyped “reading love”… but that’s about right. I love reading aloud… some readers dread it… but to me it’s like rediscovering a book that I read a long time ago but don’t quite remember.
The readings in San Francisco were great: Bird ‘n Beckett and the Book Passages at the Ferry Building. Both treated me like queens.
Also treating me like a queen: the talents of KPIX.
Check the interview HERE.
The team for this show is host Sue Kwon and producer Akilah Monifah… and I return the appreciation.
Also on their show “Bay Sunday” — comedian Charlie Murphy, actor/author/activist Peter Coyote, and playwright Donald E. Lacey, Jr.
You can find the whole show online at http://cbs5.com/baysunday
(I also figured out a BIG issue in the sequel to kiss the sky… more on that later.)
