Books In My Boot

My friend David D'Souza started doing it, and I coined the phrase, Books in My Boot. So we both own the phrase in a way. Go read about David's cool and joyous (as opposed to hot-bothered and joyless with most traditional publishing) self-publishing journey at http://ddesouza.wordpress.com/2010/04/27/self-publishing-monographs-photo-books-yes-you-can-do-it-easily/.
No he doesnt sell books solely out of the boot of his van, but yes, he always has a few there and makes a decent sale from that retail outlet too! It is inspiring and liberating, to say the least. So there are copies of my 3 Zakia Mansion and my ABCSs of Parenting in the boot of my car too. And for sure, there will be copies of The Counsel of Strangers in the boot - Dickey/dicky/dikki of the car, for those who dont use the word boot. but you can see the temptation to alliterate with book and boot. somehow book and dicky sound naah.
Anyway, OMO Books is all incorporated and getting marinated and incubated (choose your own metaphor) and The Counsel of Strangers is in its final stages before going irrevocably into the print process.
A Mumbai launch on June 4 and 5, and a Pune one a little later, and perhaps Bangalore after that. Delhi in better weather. Other places depending on whether the car with its boot-full-of-books can get there.
