It’s me, Madison.”
Damned: Thirteen-year-old Madison Spencer has just arrived in hell from a “marijuana overdose.” She may only be thirteen but as she quickly and repeatedly points out, she’s not a moron or brain damaged, simpleminded or an idiot.
As excited as I am about this book coming out and us being blessed with the opportunity to host Chuck Palahniuk when he does his signing tour in October, I am most excited about the present John brought back for me from his trip to BEA in New York.
When John came in this past Saturday and asked if I wanted to swap my advanced readers copy of Damned for the one that he brought back I was pretty confused. When he handed me the new copy I was beyond words and could only respond with hugs and many leaps of joy.
They of course returned from BEA with much more than just personalized Chuck Palahniuk books and you can read about those things in our bookstore keys blogs.
In closing I’ll leave you with a few words of wisdom from Madison for those of us who find ourselves in hell:
-Never touch the bars of the cell you wake up in (they are quite disgusting and you don’t want to be all dirtied up when judgment day arrives).
-Do your best to not die in cheap or uncomfortable shoes or while wearing a crappy watch (remember that in hell, all plastics will melt).
-Do not eat the candy that you find on your cell floor.
If you’re a bit lost or confused, stay tuned for more about the book, the event and BEA.
