Hello again, Readers Mine! That's right, we're just four weeks and two days away from the official publication date of
Wanna Cook? The Complete, Unofficial Companion to Breaking Bad, and the big news this week is that our author copies of
Wanna Cook? are winding their way to us from the Frozen North even as I write this! I have to admit, I'm looking forward to opening a package in the next week or two to find a box full of books with my name listed on the covers as one of the authors. This is my first time at this particular rodeo, and I have to admit I'm getting excited at the thought of actually holding a copy of the book I helped to write in my greedy little hands. Pictures will undoubtedly feature here shortly thereafter. That also means that it will be contest time shortly thereafter as we give away a few signed copies. We're still figuring out just how to organize that, so keep an eye out for more information. Also, be sure to check out my co-author's
"Walter White Wednesday" post this week for details on our official book launch, which will be taking place at
Fireside Books in downtown Shelby, NC!
Last week, I briefly caught you up on what Bryan Cranston has been up to since his Walter White days, and his portrayal of LBJ in
All the Way continues to bring him kudos, not least from Stephen Colbert:
You gotta admit, the guy gives good interview. On the fan-art front, check out these incredible patent blueprint-style prints from
Oliver Gal Artist Company:
Nifty, huh? Even months after the series came to its end, fans continue to produce some incredible art, mash-ups, and
even books about Breaking Bad. (see what I did there?).
So that's about it fro this week, and remember, you can get your copy of
Wanna Cook? on or at least very near May 1 by pre-ordering it today! Seriously, it's available in the US from every large bookseller either online or from stores, and the same should hold true in the UK and Germany (yes, there's a German translation being published simultaneously, because that's how we roll, and because the French didn't pony up any cash for the privilege - and we don;t cook for free, bitch.) If you're in the US and would rather spend your hard earned dollars at your local, independent bookseller, then head on over to our page at
IndieBound.org, enter your zip code, and find an independent bookstore near you who'll be happy to order you a copy!
Until next week, keep cookin'!
