Booksigning

Today, I travel into town to sign copies of my latest novel:
"Dear Me!: or The History of the End of the World as We Knew It, Told As I See It, or More Accurately, Saw It by Daniel R. Olafson."
Big secret: I wrote it. Danny is my alter ego. Not really.
But "Dear Me!" is probably the most "me" of any of my books. Coming in as #8 in order, it is the story of the last man on earth and how he got to be there through the evil machinations of his best friend from 8th grade Arthur Mencken (no relation) who said: "Someday, I'm going to kill everyone on Earth, Danny - except you."
He succeeds - more or less. More more, than less.
I have been marketing the hell out of this one, and look forward to a good turnout - the season is right - but there is no telling on these things. You pack up books, you go, you hope people show up. Someone always does, and it's fun talking to fans, even if it's only a few. I recommend it!
Novel #9 (Race!) is already done, just awaiting a cover. I will be ready to go out with it in a few months. And "Chad" - the first novel I ever wrote, back in 1981-82, will be #10, after a heavy edit, that is in progress. So, life after an MFA continues - along with more stories and poems, articles and such. It's all good. Keep writing!
