Story Behind The Book
Several years back, I wrote a novel titled "When Vegetarians Attack," which included a lot of visual material. One character writes a children's book, so I wanted to include the book (pictures, copyright page, etc.) in the novel. I even wanted a real ISBN, just in case anyone reading the book ever checked to see if the book-within-the-book was real. Of course, that meant publishing the children's book first. A friend of a friend put together some great illustrations, and voila. In the end, that novel remains somewhere in my computer files, but the children's book written for the novel now exists in the world. While living in Northern California, I took the book around to a few stores, several of which were nice enough to carry on consignment, such as Northtown Books in Arcata and Walgreen's in Crescent City. With the excitement now surrounding the "Go the F**k to Sleep" book, I thought now would be a good time to share my own children's book for adults. You can read the whole book now on fReado, not just an excerpt.
