apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Note: Pardon Our Appearance While We Primp

1-27-domino.gif1-27-at book.jpgJust a note to say that we won't be able to post for two hours this morning; a photographer from Domino is coming over to take our picture (don't worry, we've washed and shaved, etc.) so that they can give a good mention to Apartment Therapy Book: The Eight Step Home Cure, due out in April.

After working for over a year on the book, the writing is all done, the hay is in the barn and now comes the lull before the - we hope - storm. (And after today's NYTimes article on Oprah FIRING James Frey from her book club, we're real careful what we hope for.)

 
 

Due out the first week of April, our publisher now is calling to trot us out to the press and after struggling with writing for so long, it ain't such a bad job.

Maxwell, will you have shoes on? Make sure your socks look good!

Great! I am looking forward to the new book and domino mag is the coolest also - this month they have the greatest article about a DIY mom in san fran who made a couch out of twin mattresses and it looks haute!

Congrats and the book will definitely be a b-day gift to myself in April!

Maxwell - that's terrific - Can't wait to get the book.

I finally saw you on SSBS last night - it was great to put a face to the name.

Great news Maxwell. I will be buying the book.
Something is wrong with my DVR if it did not record SSBS last night. I have set it to record all repeats after it inexplicably stopped recording on first run only after working for a few weeks.

Also like the look of that Charles lookalike sectional on the cover as well as the bent ply coffee table/mag rack

Jamie, speaking of SSBS what is with it getting bumped to 11:00PM? And those have been new episodes for the last couple weeks, not even reruns.

Book party! Book tour! Oprah, too... since you are no James Frey and I think we'd all like to see a Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan vs. Nate Berkus smackdown. Bring it... Congratulations! I can't wait to see the final product.

Who's place is on the cover?

Ooo, ooo, can we take bets on the Max v. Nate Giant Smackdown? I'd pay good money to see that.
