Happy 2009! There I am at left toasting you with the glass of water I had on New Year's Eve. Yes it's water and no I'm not drunk even though I sort of look like it. It's a long story. Anyway.
January is a big month, peeps! I have no less than *five* public appearances coming up. That's a lot of dough going into the coffers for moi!
Oh wait. No it's not. Because I'm not getting paid for any of them except the class I'm teaching (which you should definitely take and which I'll tell you more about later).
Right, right. I forgot. I don't like to do things for money. I much prefer spiritual enrichment than cold, hard cash which is why my wardrobe has gotten so f*cking crappy lately and I can't afford that trip to Mexico this winter. But never mind about that. Who needs Mexico when you glow with Inner Light?
Public appearances are fun! You'll want to note all of these in your calendar. Well, except the *book club* I'll be talking to and the *career fair* at which I'll be convincing impressionable children how glamorous (not) it is to be a writer. So that makes three for your keep track of:

No matter where you live, be sure to log on and tune in for this BlogTalk Radio interview! Witty host Greg (who gets extra points for referring to me as a "renowned" author) hosts "Breaking Glass," a weekly music show. Writes Greg: "The theme of this week's show is "break-ups" and the music and discussion matter will center around breaking up (and maybe even getting back together). To this end, we have renowned author Rebecca Agiewich (The Breakup Babe) joining us in studio so check it out and call in with questions about breaking up!" *Bonus* You'll also get to hear my (recently disbanded) band Hank and the Milkmashers play!
Wednesdays, Jan 22 thru Feb 25, 5-6 p.m.
My class "Turn down the volume, pump up the word count" starts at Seattle's Richard Hugo House (read more about it here). The great breaking news about this class is that bestselling Seattle writer Garth Stein has just agreed to talk to the class February 4! And if you haven't read his latest novel, The Art of Racing in the Rain

All right, that's enough publicizing for now. Oh wait -- if you're flying Alaska Airlines in February, be sure to look for my article about kayaking in Glacier Bay!
OK that's really enough. Here's to your holiday recovery!

Hey there :) Thanks for pimping the Hugo House event, but FYI, I'm not going to be participating. I never agreed to it, and have asked HH to remove me from the roster; but apparently they didn't catch everything in time.

I'm listening to your BlogTalk interview with Greg and John right now... (I never miss those guys).
Can't wait to check out your book and your website.
I loved your blog - break up babe, its so different here. :)
I read Breakup Babe a couple years ago after I got divorced and was dating again for the first time in 12 years. I laughed so much because there were times I felt like I was reading about my own life. BB is currently being passed around to various friends and everyone loves it. Thank you for writing that book!
You are welcome! It's so nice to know that it helps people through hard times. I'm so glad your friends love it. :-)
