1 Dead In Attic

I received this letter from Chris Rose yesterday.
I support what he's doing, hope you will, too.

Hello. This is Chris Rose, from the Times-Picayune
in New Orleans.

I wanted to tell you that I have published the book.
I won't go into great detail here; if you are interested,
please check out my website - chrisrosebooks.com -
for all the information.

I'm very proud of the book. I think it captures the
raw emotion of what happened here this fall. And
I'm pleased to add that we are sharing proceeds
with a couple of very important music and arts
programs here in the city. There's more about
those organizations and about signing events and
the photographer I worked with on the website.

If you are in the New Orleans area over the coming
days, I'd like to invite you to our debut reading and
signing events at Tipitina's Sunday afternoon, the
R Bar on Monday night and Monkey Hill Bar on
Tuesday night. We'll have plenty of books available
and music and general mayhem.

Thank you for reading my stories and for sending
your kind words. I appreciate that. We're going to
win this battle.

New Orleans now. New Orleans forever!

Regards, and thanks for your support.

-Chris Rose
