countdown to book launch

Hi folks,


 Author Patrick L. Riley here - on the countdown to the release of my debut book "That's What Friends Are For: On The Women Who Inspired Me" which Dorpie Books is publishing. 

  • Our pre-order campaign funded our efforts to complete production on the book. 
  • See attached. We are outlining press and book events --- so those pre-order buyers can come out and get their book signed - including Mon 5/7: Harlem pre-book event (Melba from 6p - 9p);  Sun 6/3: Drums Along The Hudson (hosting/book signing);  Wed 6/13 Harlem book event (Cove Lounge from 7p - 9p); and planned Charlotte, DC, Atlanta, Savannah stops + Punta Cana, Dominican Republic for Memorial Day Weekend.  
  • After pre-orders ship, the book will be available via traditional channels. Stay tuned for advisement on that info.  
  • Meanwhile, for those who may want to host an intimate book set for me or gift to a larger group, there's a BULK BUY discount option (from which you can sell the books back at their market price: $35. Easy fundraiser and way to support our bottom line:  For 25+ (10% Discount) Enter code: 25FRIENDS                                                                                                                For 50+ (20% Discount) Enter code: 50FRIENDS                                                                                                                For 100+ (30% Discount) Enter code: 100FRIENDS
