Showing off, mainly...

There have been a few interesting spinoffs from my Lulu novel, Velda http://www.lulu.com/shop/ron-miller/velda/paperback/product-283187.html

Two radio plays have been based on the character. These have been produced by the Shoestring Radio Theatre of San Francisco and broadcast coast-to-coast by 110 public radio stations. A third radio play will be broadcast later this Spring and a fourth will be out this coming Summer. You can listen to the first two plays here http://black-cat-studios.com/veldaradio.html

This coming June a full-length stage play will be produced by the Halifax County Little Theatre of Halifax, Virginia. Rehearsals are already under way!

Fun stuff and a swell way to promote the book!

Re: Showing off, mainly...

Did the radio station contact you and sign a contract with you to broadcast your play? Are the fees good?

We are in the presence of greatness.....

 

Coupla questions --

How do you sell the book, noting the price on front cover and lack of  ISBN.....

Am I correct in thinking the lady on the cover seems to have forgotten to put on her knickers

[ Edited ]

The book was originally published commercially by Timberwolf Press. When it went out of print, I revived it on Lulu. Like all of my Lulu books, doing so was just for fun: I've made no effort to market any of them. I make the largest part of my living writing and illustrating traditionally published books (though one of my last big projects was an iPad app for Farrar, Straus & Giroux), so it behooves me to focus on those since I really haven't the time or energy to devote what it takes to promoting and marketing a self-published book. I only wish I did!

Since Velda is an ex-stripper that might answer your second question.
