Further Fenway Fiction: More Short Stories from Red Sox Nation

As mentioned on Sane this week, I’m working on a Seth Mnookin-style bookplate signing, for both Fenway Fiction and Further, so you can have your very own signed copy of the book without the hassle of meeting me. Or your own pair of underpants signed by me. Or whatever you want to stick the bookplate on, really. I’m not going to be a stickler. I’d appreciate it if people bought the book (one of them, anyway), but I’m not fussy. I’m sure I’ve still got signed copies of the Southbridge News from the 1990 Bay State Games coverage I could give away to people, too, if they just want signatures.

The story in this collection you’ll want to keep an eye on is “The Curious Case of Doctor Belly and Mister Itcher,” which, due to word count limits, is nearly the extent of the story (just kidding – it’s profound, deeply moving, and features Dave Wallace, former pitching coach of the Sox, as a kleptomaniac… or at least the outtakes did… and Dave, we kid, of course).

I’m sure your local independent bookstore will also stock this, so feel free to stop by there and pick up a copy.
