Killer Bunnies - Run Away, Run Away!
My publicist at Simon & Schuster is setting up
book store signings, and Mario's and Jeanne's experiences make me shudder in terror at the prospect of hawking my book to apathetic strangers.
Also, the whole speaking in public thang is more horrifying than a
Dean Koontz novel on a dark and stormy night. It might be as scary as Stephen King, but I've never been able to read King or watch movies based on his books --because I get too scared. I watched about ten minutes of
"The Shining" on TV, before I turned it off in a panic. I kept returning to it for five minute intervals, but ultimately couldn't stand the tension.
Even the version
enacted by bunnies is frightening.
An easier fear to handle is waiting for reviews and blurbs of your book. I got some very nice quotes from other authors, and Simon & Schuster just put them up on their
website.
