All Book, All The Time
Today Show, Extra, CNN’s “Showbiz Tonight”, “Fox and Friends”, “DaySide” on Fox, New York Daily News, New York Post, Shape Magazine, Tango Magazine, Complete Woman Magazine, Jewish Journal, Village Voice, Happen Magazine, Yahoo Personals, JMag, CatchHimAndKeepHim, Flash News Service, Bridgewater Courier News, Ford eNews, Cosmo Radio, WMGK – Philadelphia, KYXY – San Diego, Leeza Live, Fox Morning News, KPDQ – Portland, WTIC – Connecticut, KRNY – Monterrey, WMYX - Wisconsin
These are the places that have mentioned "Why You're Still Single" thus far, and the book's only been out for two weeks. Like all authors, we're obsessively checking our Amazon rankings and were pleased when we went up to #30 in the Amazon Relationship bestsellers list. We'd like to think it had something to do with our appearances on Weekend Today, Fox and Friends, DaySide and CNN Showbiz News on four consecutive days, but maybe not. After all, Weekend Today was pre-empted by the French Open in California, and our stint on DaySide was somewhat inhibited by a previous segment on chihuahua races. But hey, who are we to complain?
I won't go on and on about this, but my co-author, Linda, has some funny thoughts about the whole absurdity of the media circuit.
As for me? I'm just getting psyched for summer in L.A. Just this weekend, I got a picnic at the beach with the girlfriend, a new membership at LACMA, and a dance party that I'm itching to attend. Who cares if I couldn't tell Li'l Jon from Li'l Kim? Gimme a few beers and it doesn't make a difference.
Oh, finally, we got our first review from esteemed book reviewer, Luan Gaines. It's the first time I've ever been compared to Simon Cowell in print, but for four stars, I'll take it.

Congrats on the book...although from a marketing perspective, you definitely need to tell Amazon to let users "search" inside the book, i.e., read a sample chapter online...just an idea from jerusalem...
Agreed. Will talk to the powers that be.
FYI, www.whyyourestillsingle.com has three sample chapters for your reading pleasure.

First off, I think you are hilarious and enjoy your writing! However, I have to ask: Have you actually tried online dating and did you meet the girlfriend online??
