Yep. It’s been a while. But didn’t think I would stop blathering on about my book, did you? Check out the latest press/etc mentions…
From an interview with me at Orato:

A couple weeks ago “Milk Eggs Vodka” was a recommended book over at the Barnes & Noble Review’s ‘The Long List,’ which is a rundown of “50 books, CDS, and DVDs to know about now.”
Nice! Especially the part where they called it “surprisingly but absolutely addictive.”

Yeah, we talked about grocery lists.

Oops. I forgot to link up my interview on New York City’s NPR station, WFUV. On October 20 I was on Cityscape with George Bodarky, which airs Saturday mornings at 7:30 a.m.
I haven’t listened to it yet. I remember thinking to myself during the interview, “Usually I am much funnier.” I think the reason was [...]

Been slow here lately, but I did get my first actual, cashable royalty check from the book! It was a real thrill but I won’t be retiring any time soon.
Anyway, yesterday I recorded an interview about the book and grocery lists with New York City’s NPR station, WFUV. I’ll post an update when I find [...]

Here’s a fun article by Mackenzie Dawson in today’s New York Post:
Book inscriptions, grocery lists, Post-it notes - one man’s trash is truly another man’s treasure.
Particularly if that man’s trash is really weird.
For example, a dated photo that features an older woman standing proudly next to a Christmas tree - which is topped with an [...]

I did a Five Questions With in the Scranton, Pennsylvania paper (but oof — they got the URL wrong! Hope that gets fixed soon). Anyway, thanks Ron!

I was on vacation when this got posted, but the awesome mental_floss magazine is giving away a copy of my book Milk Eggs Vodka as part of the Harry Potter madness. It’s probably too late to enter now, but hey, they called the book “hilarious,” so I’m happy.

The Akron Beacon-Journal says this about Milk Eggs Vodka:
Some of the humor comes from the juxtaposition of commonplace items with the random, like the list by someone who needed Pepsi and “smelly stuff.” Others are funny because they’re vague… the lists alone, and Keaggy’s commentary, are reason enough to read this book.

I’m only linking to this Lenore Skenazy column because I wanted to be able to refer to myself as an “oddball/genius” again. The column originally appeared in Advertising Age but now is out on the wire courtesy of the New York Sun.

Absolutely addictive… I challenge you to pick up the book and not read it straight through, [...]
