For all you people who have repeatedly told me that I have star quality (thanks mom!), you are about to see a whole new side of me, about two minutes’ worth but it will seem longer.

If you live in the Bay Area, tune into KQED’s Truly, CA series on Sunday, November 16 at 6pm and watch Paperback Dreams. It is an excellent movie about independent bookstores. I guarantee it will move you.

For the rest of you, you can visit the website for more information www.paperbackdreams.com. If you know anyone who loves books, please pass along this info.

I have to go practice my Oscar speech now…
