Thanks, Midnite, et al. for your birthday greetings and good wishes.  I'm sorry I couldn't make the Fest but was in L.A. a week earlier to do initial promoton for my book.  Does anyone get the cable show, "Wow! It's Arlene Peck," hosted by syndicated columnist Arlene Peck?  It airs mainly in southern California but gets picked up in a few other markets.  Jayne Meadows and I taped a half-hour interview with Arlene that will air sometime in October.

I will return to L.A. in early November for a series of media events.  Will keep you posted.  Thanks again!

Congrats and happy birthday.  That's quite an accomplishment on the book!

What cable channel for Arlene Peck's show?  I live in Los Angeles but have not heard of her show.

Thanks, *starshine*!  All I know is that we taped it at the Adelphia Cable studios in Santa Monica, apparently for broadcast to Adelphia subscribers.  Does this help?  Arlene Peck has had her talk show for several years and has attracted several guests from entertainment (Ed Asner, Gavin MacLeod), law (Gloria Allred), and other fields.  Steve Allen was a frequent guest and even wrote the theme song to her show (when he discovered that she didn't have one).

Will you by any chance be at Vroman's Bookstore in Pasadena in November? They have frequent book signings.

Hey there, Bette!  Are you my secret agent?  As a matter of fact, I will be at Vroman's in Pasadena on Sunday, Nov. 6 at 5 p.m., together with Jayne Meadows.  We will also do a signing at Dutton's Bookstore in Beverly Hills on Sunday, Nov. 4 at 6:30 p.m.

That's great news, Ben. I'll be sure to come to the Pasadena signing. And maybe I can get Midnite to come along also.   :D What do you say, Midnite? Is it a date?  ;D

Eek, your email lists the Vroman's event on Nov. 7.  And Nov. 4 is a Friday ;).

Oops!  The dates I gave must have been for Parallel Time.  8)  What a blooper I committed!  :-[

To clarify: the Vroman's date was since changed to Sunday, Nov. 6 at 5 p.m., so that is the correct date.  As for Dutton's, I meant to say Friday (not Sunday), Nov. 4.
