I got an e-mail from my friend Charlotte Fullerton this morning. She's contributed to a Gilmore Girls book. Charlotte's a great writer and a better person, and Gilmore Girls is... okay, I've never watched it. Oddly, I've been on the set, but never watched it. I meant to get into it a couple of years ago, as a lot of people whose opinions I respect dig it, but again, big with the busy. But, if you had a little more free time or foresight than I did and watched the residents of Stars Hollow, I think you should check it out.
Heck, I'll probably by the book myself, even if I don't understand it. Writer solidarity.
As long as I'm hawking books, my friend and client Caridad Ferrer has another book coming out, It's Not About the Accent, from MTV Books. Accent and her previous Adios to my Old Life, are Latina young adult novels. Now, while I'm sure she didn't write the books with a thirtysomething cartoonist in mind, didn't mean I didn't like it. In fact, I loved the first book and am looking forward to the second. I highly recommend both of them.
And that concludes this installment of the Thom Zahler Book Club.
