ladyspriteOn the brighter side....
So back about 3-4 months ago I found out about this awesome thing called World Book Night, and I applied to be part of it. I didn't figure it'd actually come to anything, but applying was free, and easy enough. And then I just kind of let it go from my mind.
Yesterday I got an email telling me that I've been chosen, and that I'm going to be an official Book Giver.
So I get to spend the evening of April 23 hanging out at Faneuil Hall and the associated environs, giving out free books to people in hopes that they'll love them as much as I do. I cannot express how excellent this is, or how excited I am to be part of this! And part of me knows that it's a bit silly to get so worked up over, essentially, standing around handing out stuff, but... books! And sharing! And... this is just going to be so incredibly cool.
Later this week I get to find out what book I'm giving out (I had to pick three from their list that I liked; they'll then pick one for me to give), and start finagling more details. For now, though, I'll just jive here with my happydance of books and being chosen....
