Greenwich Village, the Land of the Beatnik and our Book signing!

Hello to all my dear friends,

 

Come celebrate with me and Janette! In only two weeks, we are already bestsellers on Amazon.com! We are #16 in the Self Esteem category! http://www.amazon.com/Embracing-Your-Big-Fat-Ass/dp/1416542795/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1212695270&sr=8-1. We’ll be filming the event.
