Just before I started my shift at work, the rapper Kool Moe Dee showed up at the offices for a meeting, and took pictures with the staff members. He answered questions about the old feud between him and LL Cool J, spoke about his upcoming HBO program where he interviews various hip hop and rap artists, and finally told some really interesting vignettes about MC Hammer and Will Smith.

I finished reading The Good Thief by Hannah Tinti. The book is almost retro: about a handless orphan in 1800s New England who falls in with a group of grifters. The tone is dark and full of grotesques, and some of the plot turns don't feel organic, but the lead character is well drawn.

So, my birthday is today.  Nothing spectacular happened.  Just work, and braving the cold rain that soaked this area, thanks to Ida.  I was pleased to receive over 50 Facebook Birthday wishes. I suppose, then, that something spectacular did happen,after all.

I am writing a document for self-promotion when you're with a small press--a guide for Lethe authors. Does anyone have any tips? Or can they point me to another source about self-promotion do's and don'ts?
