Barbara Browning Live!

Good news for people who like really fantastic news: Barbara Browning will be doing two readings next week from her forthcoming debut novel, The Correspondence Artist (February 2011).

On Wednesday, October 6 at 7:30, Barbara will be reading as part of BOMB's All-Stars Literary Reading Series at Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. 'Santuxto Exteberria,' an excerpt from The Correspondence Artist, appeared in the summer issue of BOMB.

For those not in Fort Greene, Barbara will be reading, live, via Two Dollar Radio's brand spanking new video channel the night before, on October 5 at 8pm. Anyone will have the opportunity to pop in and ask Barbara questions about her new book. (I'm super-excited about this.) In the future, we'll be doing regular live web readings, interviews, and miscellaneous activities with our authors. It should be a blast, and plenty more opportunity for readers to interact with the writers.

Loved Barbara's posts about the Correspondence Artist on Two Dollar's site and can't wait to interact with Barbara via the new video channel, but is this going to require technical acumen? It's taken me months to learn how to comment on blog posts and now that I've mastered that I'm fat and self-satisfied and suffering from the Second Law of Thermodynamics which states that entropy never decreases

It should be pretty straightforward. You won't have to login just to watch the reading, but you will have to create a username and password in order to comment and ask questions -- but that should just take a minute or two.
