Launching A Book In A Movie Theatre (the prequel)

Well, I haven't been this excited about a book launch in years! When I launch Flickers on May 11th (at 7PM) it will be in a 500 seat 1930s era theatre here in Saskatoon. Yes, I'll be playing clips from silent films. There will be a bit o' Nosferatu. And Chaplin. A talk about the roaring 20s and a few readings from the book.

Yesterday I got to test out the theatre. WOW. Talk about a glorious ol' building. And a glorious sound system. This is a big step up from the 100's of gyms I've presented in.

It really looked and sounded perfect. In the afternoon of the 11th there will be 500 students here for the "school" launch. Then I hope that everyone in the world comes to the evening launch for the public.

Yep, I'm jazzed!

Oh, and I did take a moment to play Clash of Clans on the big screen:
