From Fly Away Home author Jennifer Weiner's website:
In preparation for the Cupcakes Across America/FLY AWAY HOME tour, which kicks off at the Lincoln Center Barnes & Noble in NYC tomorrow night at 7:30, here’s What to Expect When You’re Expecting to Go to a Reading.
WHEN SHOULD I COME? Come early. Not crazy-early, but if you want a good seat, shoot for fifteen minutes before start time.
WHAT HAPPENS? Generally, I talk and tell stories for fifteen to twenty minutes. Possible topics include my mother, reality TV, what Eliot Spitzer’s escort was doing that was worth $5,000 a session and how no good can ever come from a three-hour massage.
I’ll read a brief (two to three page) excerpt from FLY AWAY HOME. Then I’ll take questions for another twenty minutes or so, which is always my favorite part of the night.
Then I sign books.
Also, there will be cupcakes, so come hungry (tomorrow night they’re from the Magnolia Bakery; the Philly cupcakes are from Betty’s Speakeasy). Seriously, do NOT leave me alone at the end of the night with dozens of uneaten cupcakes. It won’t be pretty.
From Rachel: I'd never heard of Betty's Speakeasy, but here's a photo from their Facebook page to further entice you (the big cupcake cake is just what I found there, probably not what'll be served at the event). If anyone goes, do send us photos at cupcakestakethecake at gmail.com
