Just How Am I Supposed To Compete With This?

Not Your Mother's Bookclub links to a YouTube version of the closing Frank Portman used at a library presentation. A couple of weeks ago I saw an author dancing at her bookstore appearance via YouTube.

I've always felt that if I put on makeup and clean clothes before I showed up at a bookstore or library I'd done enough. More than enough. Right now I'm feeling that my poor attitude probably explains a lot about how my appearances go.

Damn. Next Sunday I'm supposed to go to an author reception at a conference for school librarians. I'm going to be depressed all week.
