I had an email yesterday from the Fox56 Morning Edition, my interview will run on June 2nd between 7:30 and 8:00 AM!  If you’re close enough to Lexington to get that channel, definitely check it out.  I’m curious to see how it comes out.  I thought it went well!  I also had another article in the paper about the book signings, so things have been picking up.  I hope it turns into people coming out…

What is he shoveling?

What is he shoveling?

Whew! What a whirlwind of activity here around DanMarvin.net. I’ve redesigned the site, I hope you like it. I added a custom header picture (with the outhouse), and added a button for buying Briefs with Paypal.  That took quite a bit of research, but I finally got it and I think it looks quite spiffy.  I also changed the background theme to be a little cleaner, lined up the pages in the order I wanted them to appear, and added some new graphics.  Oh, and I added a preview.  I’m still waiting to hear about when the Fox56 interview is going to air, but it should be in the next few days.  Stay tuned!

Other stuff:

For all of you writers out there, Friday is “Writer’s Worth Day” where we try to get paid what we’re worth.  For more information, visit the Words on the Page blog by Lori Widmer.  It’s worth the click!

Also, an article about Briefs now appears on Not Negative News, a web site for… well, news that isn’t negative.

The Fox56 Morning Edition Set

The Fox56 Morning Edition Set

Today I had the interview for Fox 56s Morning Edition.   The process was very interesting, the interview itself should air in the next two weeks.  I stopped by the studio a few minutes before 8 AM and watched Jennifer Nime Palumbo and Todd Borek finishing up their morning broadcast.  Afterwards, Jennifer taped some promos for tomorrow’s program.

At about 8:15, it was my turn.  After a few fact checks, Jennifer loaded information into her Tele-Prompter and we started in.  She asked me about the book of course, about writing in general, if I have any advice for other authors, and the book signings I have coming up.  It seemed like it was over almost before it began but I guess we chatted for 2 minutes or more.  Within 35 minutes I was in and out and on my way. 

When the interview airs, I will make sure to get a copy of it to link to here and will probably put it onto Youtube as a promo for the book.  All in all, a neat experience!
