I took a trip to Brooklyn, New York earlier this week to take part in the latest installment of Brooklyn Books & Booze<\/a>, which takes place the third Tuesday of each month at Barrow’s Intense Tasting Room<\/a>. I was joined that night by three other readers — Yume Kitasei, Fran Wilde, and Victor Pineiro.<\/p>\n

It was my first chance to talk up and read from my new science fiction short story collection 101 Things to Do Before You’re Downloaded<\/em>, out this month from PS Publishing<\/a>. The reason that book cover is so large in my hands is because that isn’t a book I’m holding, as copies haven’t made their way to me quite yet, but a collapsible poster, which I think pops far better in these photos at that larger size than the book itself would have. <\/p>\n

If you weren’t in the room Tuesday, you can still hear me read the collection’s introduction, as well as one of the 13 stories inside — “The Lessons Only a Jelly Bean CanTeach.”<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n
