Today is Sonday. That's right, just direct your feet to the sonny side of the street.
My son, Adam Felber, he of NPR's WAIT, WAIT, DON'T TELL ME, fame; he who is writing and performing in a new TV show to be debuting on FOX next season; he who does Improv and sells movie and TV scripts, he who got a gold star for his finger painting in first grade.... (Oh, I could go on) has his first novel coming out in TWO WEEKS!
SCHRODINGER'S BALL, a Random House Trade Paperback, ISBN #081 297 4425 <-- click to buy
It has gotten raves, I tell you, actual raves from Publisher's Weekly, Booklist, and Library Journal.
It's funny and soulful and thoughtful and Boy! Am I proud of my boy! (yes, I am.)

(Doubt me? If you check my copyright, I am actually, really: Edith Felber. And surprise: I have a book coming out in November from NAL Trade paperbacks under that name. More about that, later)
Today belongs to Adam.
SCHRODINGER'S BALL
Buy it. Read it. Believe me, you'll love it.
Then let me know how you liked it, so I can gloat.
Edith, this is so cool! Congratulations to Adam, but more congratulations to you for raising such alarmingly talented children. You done good! :)

Oh, Edith, you must be bust'n with pride! Gloat and boost with gusto, that's a mother's right.
Give my congrats to Adam. I'm off to check out his book. And yours as well.

Edith, what excellent timing! I had just added Adam's blog site, Fanatical Apathy, to our "Favorite Blogs" sidebar.
Your kids obviously inherited your genes for genius. Congratulations, proud mama!

Thanks for the good words. Still wish I could spell. (I just snuck in and changed 'Shrodinger" to the correct "Schrodinger"!)

Congratulations to Adam, and to his mom and sister too!
Wow, the story sounds great (I love this sort of thing, and my college-age kids will too, I think) and the reviews are outstanding. I'm looking forward to this one, and it's going on my wish list for sure.
Thanks for letting us know. :)

Hugs to Adam! I am off to add his book to my order list.
Not that I haven't already shipped home two boxes of books from the ball. Sigh.
Adam's book should be a nice palate cleansers in between courses!

Congratulations to proud mom and brilliant son! Can you say "greatest literary dynasty since the Adamses? Or at least the Benchleys?"

Edith, congratulations! Two terrific, talented kids. How proud you must be. Congratulations to Adam. I drink a toast--of virtual champagne--to the fabulous Felbers.
