I don't usually do a post on Fridays. But today is no ordinary Friday.
Not only have I been let out of Facebook Jail, after 30 surprisingly refreshing days, seriously we should all take FB timeouts on occasion.
But as the picture would indicate, today I can announce the arrival of my new book, Mr. Siegel Writes to Washington.
Here's a better view of the cover, designed by Jean Robaire.
I'm incredibly proud of this piece.
I challenged myself to write a letter to every GOP Senator, not an easy task, and I did.
I pushed past the inertia and got up on that angry soapbox, week after trying week.
And I put it all together, perhaps the most labor intensive part of this endeavor, in a book form that looks remarkably professional.
I even designed and built a little website to promote the book online.
In hindsight, The Molotov Missives, may have been a better title for the book, but I opted for clarity and straightforwardness.
Mind you, I have not deluded myself into thinking this book has any import. It's sophomoric. It's crude. It's written in a satirical style that's fitting for fifteen year old boys.
In other words, it's a partial realization of a dream I had a long, long time ago, when I fantasized about my life as a writer for the National Lampoon or Spy Magazine.
I hope you can find it in your Precedent Shitgibbon-hating heart to part with 9 bucks and find a place for this book on your shelves. Or atop your toilet bowl.
If I can sell enough copies, I will use the proceeds to go to Washington, DC and set up shop at the foot of the Capitol building and hand out copies to the current politicallati.
Oh and if anyone doubts I will do that, I refer you to my earlier ushanka-wearing visits to Trump National Golf Course.
Buy the book here.
