Here’s the latest: I’m coming to San Francisco to give away lots of my books

I’ve scheduled an event at Manny’s in the Mission District in the evening of Tuesday, October 14. The event is on EventBrite.

HOW COME? Well, Norma and I had a publishing business in San Francisco. I wrote the books and we shipped them out of our garage. It worked really great. Then we moved to Italy. I put the remaining inventory in a storage locker in Daly City.

That was nine years ago. The books are still there. I’m still paying for the storage locker.

It’s kind of embarrarssing. But the smartest, easiest and most fun thing to do is to give them away.

I’m also doing an Amherst Writers and Artists method writing workshop in the Mission on Saturday, October 11, 2pm to 5pm, with tapas included afterwards. Email me at [email protected] for specifics. —-C.T.
