The release of “Schrödinger’s Ball” is now only three weeks away, and the literary world waits with baited breath. This might sound impressive (and, as siobhan points out below, incorrect), but if you’ve ever spent much time in a closed room with the literary world, you’d know that their breath is always baited. At least baited. On a good day.

But things are definitely heating up. Last week, I received my first-ever copy of my first-ever book, and I can report that it’s… beautiful. Small, sleek, and unabashedly Kermit Green, this little baby will really move on the open road. Now we just need to get her to move off the shelves.

Well, it might move into libraries at the very least - last week’s Library Journal review opened with “To give you an idea of the delightfully intellectual zaniness at work in comedian and television writer Felber’s novel…” and closed with, “Recommended for most fiction collections.” You hear that, librarians!? Buy! And although it’s a novel, I’d prefer that you put it in the reference section so that your patrons have to buy their own copies. Whaddya say? I might make it worth your while…

I’ll post the whole review at the book’s website soon. Meanwhile, I’m going to go buy the literary world some Mentos.
