As JCL was kind enough to point out in the book thread, I have one coming out this March, titled Amazin' Again: How the 2015 New York Mets Brought the Magic Back to Queens. Bonus points for recognizing the title was used for the Mets' 2000 giveaway VHS tape commemorating the 1999 season. (My editor confesses he'd forgotten about that, but I think it works here, too.)

Nice cover. It's almost like they want it to sell!

C'mon, I'm not buying more than 3 copies, man. Okay. 5. Max.

This might be Little Solo's first venture into big boy Mets reading. When I'm done with it, that is.

I logged onto Amazon.com and Amazin' Again was the second of about 10 recommendations. I'm not sure if this cool or spooky.

I mean, yes it's reading your history/profile/etc. That's the world we live in. Better recs tailored to you rather than generic populace right? mine's recommending

This one's also on my recommended list and I'm trying to figure it out because I couldn't name you a single active NHL player. [fimg=444]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51bVfrER5sL._SX329_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg[/fimg]

I don't know what STUD is, but staring at the title makes me think the sequel should be ENT.

This is what Amazon suggests for me:

Hurrah! And we'll see what we can do.

I know - you're very famous now, and have to dole out autographs selectively ;)

Hopefully the $10/autograph (suggested, but optional) is waived for

Come to Foley's this Saturday, May 26th from noon to 3 pm in order to celebrate the release of Amazin' Again.

A great read. It was fun to luxuriate in all that good stuff again.

Glad you liked it. I'll talk to casting about fixing the final scene in the sequel.

As long as it ends in Electric Boogaloo, I'm fine with either.

Two events coming up: Saturday March 26 (noon to three) at Foley's, Thursday March 31 (6 to 7:30 PM) at the Central Branch of the Queens Library in Jamaica. All kinds of info here, including a report from Bergino last week, where you can impress all your sedermates with a baseball yarmulke.

Today is the big day! Come on down to Foley's - all the cool kids will be there!

d'Kong76 Mar 26 2016 12:31 PM Re: Amazin' Again (a brief preview) |
Will there be Guinness? haha
|
d'Kong76 Mar 26 2016 08:30 PM Re: Amazin' Again (a brief preview) |
I jinxed it, the Guinness was broken!
|
themetfairy Mar 27 2016 02:44 AM Re: Amazin' Again (a brief preview) |
It may not have been all of the cool kids in attendance, but there was a strong CPF showing this afternoon. It was excellent being able to hang out with friends, discuss the Mets and watch G-Fafif sell out all of his books, including to random Red Sox fans who just showed up at Foley's for lunch.

I got down to reading this a little later than I thought I would...but I finished it in one sitting yesterday afternoon.

Thanks Monk. And thanks Mole for a lovely review on Amazon. And I was so happy to see the Fairy, D-Dad, Kase and JCL at Foley's yesterday. Appreciate the support always.
