Cheap Bastards
Tonight I attended a launch party for my friend David Volk's new book, The Cheap Bastard's Guide to Seattle. The event was held at Richard Hugo House, an excellent venue for this sort of event. David and his wife Cindy laid out quite a spread with food and wine, as well as chocolate tastings and other nummy treats. It meant I got to visit with David and his wife a tiny bit, but also with oldmangrumpus and varina8, as well as DS WINOLJ. The evening included a reading as well as a contest to see who could provide the best hints for finding cheap or free stuff in Seattle. My contribution to said event was to mention the free iTunes songs you can pick up at Starbuck's each week.
I'll admit that David's humor isn't always to my taste, but he can be witty and insightful, and he certainly finds terrific bargains all around town. The book is great for locals and visitors alike. scarlettina says, "Check it out!"
