By following this link, you will learn of: Little Gray Book Lecture #1: How to Begin an Important Project. Perhaps you will attend? It will take place at Galapagos Art Space, on Wednesday, March 7, at 8PM. Galapagos is located at 70 North Sixth Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, between Wythe and Kent. Bedford Station on the L train, www.galapagosartspace.com, 718-782-5188 It will feature several fascinating speakers reporting on various works-in-progress. Specifically: David Rees will discuss the evolution of the illustrated book "My New Fighting Technique is Unstoppable," which is about karate fighters, and its sequel, "My New Filing Technique is Unstoppable," which is about office workers. Hannah Tinti will read a story involving an animal, perhaps a monkey Todd Pruzan will read a selection from a piece of writing which is either too long or too short. David Guion & Mike Handelman will publicly announce their first collaboration since the completion of "Mondo Beyondo," a screenplay dealing with robots in America. Ben Greenman will do one of two things: read work from his forthcoming collection SUPERBAD, or read from a novel that J Hodgman refused to represent. And a presentation of new entries will be made by the Editorial Committee of "M," the 13th Volume of an Encyclopedia Interesting points: At least one speaker will use an overhead projector Some information will be given regarding E Haldeman-Julius of Girard, Kansas. Mr. Haldeman-Julius was the editor of the Little Blue Books, a series of cheap, instructive paperbacks which were so very popular in the early to middle 20th century. There were 1,915 Little Blue Books, ranging on such subjects as How to Make All Kinds of Candy (No. 518), What You Should Know About Poisons (No. 1508), and What Is the End of Life?: Bunk About the Aimlessness of Modern Life (No. 1803) There will likely not be 1,915 Little Gray Book Lectures. There may not even be a second. There will be a $2 suggested donation. There will be no auctions or spelling bees this time. That is all.
