I can't resist sharing this, an update from Elliott Bay Books on how my book is selling there:
""The exciting news is that Nathan's book is number 5 on our bestseller list– not far behind Michelle Obama!"
What? How did that happen?? It isn't hubris that compels me to share this, trust me. It's gratitude. The real arbiter of what that sentence is celebrating is you all, not me. That there is support and enthusiasm out there for uncomplicated, uncontroversial goodness, celebrations of the little kindnesses... That's what's really inspiring here, and worth noting. Publishers who passed up on this book, take note: there is a market for being nice.
Elliott Bay is hosting me for an author reading and Q&A this Tuesday at 7pm. You're invited. Details and directions here.
