I had an opportunity to speak with a book group that read "Virtually Yours, Jonathan Newman". What a wonderful experience! The conversation was insightful and their enthusiasm for Jonathan's family and story was very gratifying. I also learned a lot from their questions and observations, all of which will inform the sequel, expected out in the spring of 2012.
This group had been meeting monthly for seventeen years. That means they've discussed over 200 books! What a gift it is for a writer to be able to discuss his or her work with a group of people who have shared that kind of literary experience.
Which leads me to a new addition on the robertrosell.com site. I'm adding a Book Group page. If you are part of a group that is reading VYJN, I'd be happy to meet with you. If you're in the Seattle area, I can join your conversation about the novel in person. If you're elsewhere, I can be a virtual participant by phone or other "communicator". I'll do as many of these as my schedule permits and look forward to exploring the world of Jonathan Newman with you.
