young "Jen's" school photo smile, but Jason assures us he gave it his best shot. "Jen" received this drawing because she ordered the novel at Community Bookstore in Brooklyn's Park Slope neighborhood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1403796424701-KAORYN48MZFWZGWQI19X/Ryan.jpg Reader Portrait Gallery - "Ryan" Always suave and once curly, "Ryan" ordered Why Are You So Sad? at McNally Jackson Books in New York's Soho neighborhood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1403734739878-INQVV50QN8ZE7CQO85O8/Justin.jpg Reader Portrait Gallery - "Justin" "Justin" supports his friends and teammates.

Wanting to also get a unique collector's item, "Nick" ordered his copy of the novel at Granada Books in Santa Barbara, California. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1388694205872-EVIVAEEMLSDFRNYFWTW6/grant.jpg Reader Portrait Gallery - "Grant" Pouncing on the opportunity to get a free portrait, and support a former colleague from The Grey Lady, "Grant" made his order at Astoria Bookshop, of Queens, NY. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1389329173058-C7ZE659WZE7VMOW8RTF8/mossmans.jpg Reader Portrait Gallery - "The Mossman-Svenningsens" The super huggable Mossman-Svenningsen clan, great fans of the arts, earned this special family portrait because they pre-ordered the book through Wordsworth Books & Company of Little Rock, Arkansas. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1389569966149-BMXIBEO6ZOO0E323UR5K/emily.jpg Reader Portrait Gallery - "Emily" Despite insider access that surely would have allowed her a free copy of the book, "Emily" pre-ordered at BookCourt, because she didn't want to miss out on a free portrait. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1390284969084-2HZOJOJZSZRQN8Q18ABN/curley.jpg Reader Portrait Gallery - "Steve" Reader "Steve" used to have braces as a kid.

People were nice. Drinks were served. Terrible sentences were written. Many people left with totes. Not bad for a Wednesday night.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1444076020559-9A4TK37VK4JNTQ3ANODC/flintreading.jpg Events On September 29th, Jason was part of the Flint Fiction reading series, along with Helen Phillips and Kerry Cullen who were both superb. It's a great series which will soon be moving to Brooklyn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1409972506394-OAC5IB3BC3L8GFQOVL27/library.jpg Events • On August 13th, Jason had the honor of reading at one of his all-time favorite institutions, the Glen Lake Community Library -- part of a community and region where the author finds great energy and inspiration. The turnout was, relative to the size of the city, or in this case village, the strongest Jason has received in all of his promotional journeys. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1409973193019-PZKGK3U40OBPVA3J0IMX/image-asset.jpeg Events • On June 24th, Jason joined a star studded cast of readers and singers to celebrate the Paperback Launch of Matthew Dojny's The Festival of Earthly Delights. John Wray, Kathleen Alcott, and Halimah Marcus all wowed the crowd. Many songs were sung. Many more were warbled. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1404502023067-5W9PJFBP86TM81KKAD8H/image-asset.jpeg Events • On June 19th, Jason was thrilled to be invited back to his home town for the 2014 Ann Arbor Book Festival. His leg of the book crawl took place at Nicola's Books, where he read along with Doug Trevor and Bethany Neal. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1402362304719-5QWY87KIDS02JE7T0KHC/image-asset.jpeg Events Chicago's 2014 Printers Row Lit Festival benevolently placed Jason on a panel with the super smart Kathleen Rooney. Thanks to deft moderation by the ultra prepared and engaging Nina Metz, Jason managed to answer some thoughtful questions in nearly complete sentences while also not getting in the way of some of the interesting ideas beyond his grasp. It was such a success that while not signing any books immediately afterward, a man did approach the author at a bar later that evening to ask for a signature. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1400172894327-JGA7E45D1BG80GIT3VYV/image-asset.jpeg Events On May 6th, Jason had the privilege of reading with Delia Ephron and Meg Wolitzer as part of Spoken Interludes, a literary salon lovingly curated by DeLauné Michel in Westchester County, NY. The food was great and the questions from the audience were even better, and all of it included a beautiful view overlooking the Hudson. Jason is definitely starting to get spoiled by events like this. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1399214006468-78AM4WCIX5Z0R99YY560/image-asset.png Events Live Wire Radio invited Jason to read an essay out loud to an audience and also perhaps podcast listeners who live somewhere in the future and should avoid driving while listening to the author's hypnotic monotones. Jason claims to have had a lot of fun and was especially thrilled to be on the same show as Barbara Ehrenreich and The Minus 5. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1398787271430-6G7MU4HNSC1SGCKDPMGC/image-asset.jpeg Events On April 13th, which turned out to be one of the more lovely spring days in memory, Jason spent the early evening reading in the very dark KGB Bar with David Burr Gerrard and Douglas Watson. Everybody in attendance enjoyed the nostalgic Cold War environs, along with the engaging nips of fiction.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1393516516482-8ETDCIQRMI6DX2F5OZKW/BhR6NfsIUAAQTkd.jpg Events The Sackett Street Writers Workshop holds a regular reading series at BookCourt and Jason was included in a fabulous February 24th lineup, along with Ivy Pochoda, Howard Feinstein, and Molly Rose Quinn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1393369834952-279VW5STBNZRF4MYE1E1/1009942_10151954115963568_923133863_n.jpg Events Powell's Books made Why Are You So Sad? one of their favorite books for the month of February, so it worked out well that that was where Jason finished his West Coast tour. The reading was so lively that Jason managed to wake up a customer who had been sleeping in one of the aisles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1393366290256-6C5J4PECOB09B7ASG1OK/book-passage.jpg Events Everybody kept telling Jason that if in Northern California he should visit Book Passage in Corte Madera because they do great events and have smart and loyal customers. So that's what Jason did on February 16th, and everything he heard was true. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1393365969381-0DK78F8CIWS37Y4VH6L5/BgkNcR7CcAAs_wC.jpg Events Jason packed the house at San Fransisco's Books Inc. on February 15th. It was one the best crowds of the tour. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1392149169669-CTYM27MA3F2WEAU5AOS0/image.jpg Events Book Soup hosted Jason on February 10th. The crowd was engaged and the staff was friendly and much smarter than the author. It's a great place to stumble into a book you didn't realize you were seeking. Jason hopes to be back soon. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1392056979845-O71FWBIPYZWK26OKCNNG/image.jpg Events Texas is lucky to have Austin, and Austin is lucky to have Book People, and Jason was lucky to read there on February 7th. It was another cold night, but there was still an audience filled with alert and inquisitive listeners. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1392057240064-WQZIXZLOE1WUIDSA7SQU/image.jpg Events Somebody credible estimated that over 100 people attended the New York launch of Why Are You So Sad? at McNally Jackson, but Jason was too dizzy to confirm this. Whatever the number, everybody had a great time. The night was highlighted by a conversation with National Book Award winner, and quality human being, Colum McCann.. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1391439324461-GQ3GDB66XY7AHIMJCMTU/tumblr_n0ahhfsQbN1qhlkuxo1_500.jpg Events Jason finished his mini-tour of the Midwest with a reading at DittoDitto in Detroit, Mi, on January 31st. It was a great crowd. Detroit really has it going on, at least according to the author. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1391398555418-XDC4U0B5G24XTO1ZP9IZ/1798212_607994462606907_1342455401_n.jpg Events • On January 30th, Jason read in his hometown of Ann Arbor, Michigan, at the relatively new Literati Bookstore. He was greeted by old friends and maybe a few new fans. Joining Jason for a fun and snappy conversation on the book was the smart and delightful Jennifer Traig. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1391397953692-44EAYC7FG5QXHS15KVBS/1499604_10203583283166626_639221328_n.jpg Events For his pub date Jason took on the return of the Polar Vortex by traveling to CityLit Books of Chicago, IL, where he read and then had an intelligent conversation with fellow novelist, and thoughtful questioner, Rebecca Makkai. Despite the below zero temperatures there was a good turnout and opportunity for Jason to break in his new Micron® pen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1384299022300-CF0YLQXDRX2DNEPCYRR6/9781250047762.jpg Events https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1368651087505-66IH5I31122QUWO7RTR2/Screen+Shot+2013-05-15+at+12.05.55+PM.png Events Friday, June 14, at The Paper Box, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The fun will begin at 7:30pm (only $5 at the door!) and will last late into the night with music from Pork Chop Willie. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/507849a5c4aaa91969f657cf/1353266186533-S5D93NY4VW9CZLKT1PL2/575287_10151190581333096_453503734_n.jpg Events Jason reading at Mulherin + Pollard gallery with full body text interpreter Paul Benney.
