Hello and Happy New Year to Melanie, Bob, David, ZipZip, Maurine, Twitchell, and Everyone here who I have always held dear to my heart!
I am very excited to have re-signed on with the HB Message Board.
I’ve been absent for the last few years, mostly because of my A.D.D., which forced me to removed myself all social media in general (like Facebook and Twitter), as it was too time-consuming for me.
The positive side of doing that has allowed me to focus more on my work, granting me the much-required time to focus on my work and projects like TWITCH UPON A STAR: THE BEWITCHED LIFE AND CAREER OF ELIZABETH MONTGOMERY, which as some of you may know, has been just published – and which has already become such a wonderful success.
This very special book of mine has sold out at Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and other online sources. It’s going back to press for its Second Printing (!), and it is still available of course at stores throughout the country, but copies of the book will not be available online for at least another week or so.
So that's good news and bad.
Obviously, good, because the book is doing so well....but bad because I'm not sure I will have any books for the Hollywood Show on January 11th & 12th.
Hopefully, they will arrive in time, so I will be able to join in on the fun with David P., Erin, Diane, David L., Bernard Fox and the others!
(And I SO wish the great and talented Charles Tranberg could join us, too!)
Either way, as I have emailed others on my personal distribution list, please “cross your noses for me” that the books will arrive in time...and also please spread the word that anyone who wants to order a personally-signed copy can do so just by contacting me through www.herbiejpilato.blogspot.com or www.twitchuponastar.blogspot.com or through my publisher Taylor Trade Publishing via https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781589797499 .
Either way, I am delighted to be back here on the HB Message Board. I’m not sure how much I will be able to post and reply to other posts, but I will make every effort to do so. In the meantime, may every good and great blessing be yours in the New Year – and beyond!
With best “twitches” and much affection -
Herbie J

Hi Herbie! Welcome back! So good to know you're still within reach! Since Santa didn't bring me Twitch for Christmas, I need to get it for myself. Are there new copies of it available? How did the show go for everyone? I hate to have missed it!"Witches are good! Witches are dear!"
