Bronwyn has sold great bunches of Elizabeth Gilbert's book at our place for months,
and it turns our everyone else is now, too.
"Last month, as Gilbert went on a 21-day, 18-stop tour to promote the paperback edition of her memoir, she watched while women choked bookstores and coffee shops and houses of worship across the country. Two days before her first event, at the New York Open Center in SoHo, which specializes in holistic health and offers classes in yoga, spiritual inquiry and feng shui, she got a call notifying her they'd had to relocate her talk to a larger venue because they'd already sold more than 300 tickets. After a reading in Colorado, one reporter wrote that, "virtually every woman in Boulder between the ages of 25 and 70 showed up."
An aside: check out the comments after the story. It looks like "Phil" is a bit ticked off with his lot in life. It's true I guess: the best revenge is living well and without a Phil in one's life.
