: I am adding an extra city to my book tour, and I’m giving you guys the opportunity to vote on which city that should be. In conversation with the lead anesthesiologist of my treatment, Dr. Scott Tadler Book People/Austin April 30, 2019 Sitting on top of two pieces of cardboard placed to protect the books from YOUR HELPER DESTROYER DROPPING THE ENTIRE THING ON THE GROUND was a packing receipt: 50 copies of my book. But also for those of us who have thought, “It’s gone.

I’m debuting my new book at the The King’s English Bookshop in Salt Lake City on April 27th and hosting a Q&A with the lead anesthesiologist of my treatment, Dr. Scott Tadler. I think it was after I screamed at that person on the phone that I threw up for two days, but it was a couple of weeks before then that I told a certain room of people that they could go straight to hell and even my dad got so mad at them that he got in his car and was ready to drive over and and play Whack-A-Mole with me! I’m super late to some promotions and deadlines so let’s just get to it, starting with a really amazing deal that starts today: From April 8 through Tuesday, April 30, new customers who sign up for Butcher Box will receive 2lbs of Pork Breakfast Sausage and 2 packs of Bacon for free. And here I haven’t even done a belly flop into the details of how the craziest storm in decades hit Salt Lake City and we were without power for two days and then without hot water or heat for four days.

And it wasn’t downstairs on my desk, and it wasn’t back upstairs in the kitchen I announced last week that I’m going to send signed and personalized bookplates to those of you who pre-order the book and can’t make it to one of the tour dates (see details here and here). Everything leading up to the publication of the book started like a freight train last week—this does not include the months and months and months of editing I did on this thing, and I have no doubt that somewhere in his eventual obituary my editor will have a bullet point under his list of many hobbies that says, “Made that mommy blogger endure a laughably ridiculous amount of edits and loved every minute of it”—so I’m trying to stay as healthy and rested as possible before its release. This started with a colonoscopy and a hot Chilean gastroenterologist last month, and then last week that hot Chilean gastroenterologist had to see me for a certain highly embarrassing followup procedure, the details of which I will not ever get into.

Last week in the newsletter for my upcoming book I announced the official tour dates and events associated with it including one here in SLC that will feature the doctor who served as the lead anesthesiologist on my treatment. Yesterday I braved the flagship Desert Book store across the street from Temple Square to acquire several things for the care packages I am sending to Brittany Meadows, Megan Lemons, and Kristin Tracy who won the giveaway of Utah-themed care packages by signing up for the newsletter I’m sending out about my book. THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE HERE EXCEPT FOR A PERSON WHO IS SOMEWHAT KNOWN FOR MOCKING THE RELIGION Here’s a sneak peak of a few things included in the package: I joked on instagram that Anglo-Saxon Jesus keeps stealing Coco’s sheep, but my god.
