<p>My event with Kathie Lee Gifford has been rescheduled for Wednesday December 15th from 5-6PM at Lord and Taylor.  However, I will still be there tomorrow on the 9th signing my custom Lord and Taylor New York City ornaments, tabletop, and book A Very New York Christmas. If you come on the 9th and want an Angel Blocks ornament, I can reserve it for you to be signed by Kathie Lee.</p>
<p>Some of the proceeds from Angel Blocks will benefit The ABC Foundation, an organization creating model programs for vulnerable children and their families designed to permanently break the destructive cycles of abuse, neglect, sickness, and homelessness.</p>
<p>Meet Kathie Lee Gifford and me at the signing event in New York City at Lord &amp; Taylor, December 15h from 5-6PM.</p>
<p>I look forward to seeing you and wishing you all the best for a joyous season.</p>
<p>Michael</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It has been an exciting last two weeks and now I need to catch you up on all my past events.</p>
<p>At my signing at <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/A-Very-New-York-Christmas/Michael-Storrings/e/9780312377052/?itm=1&amp;usri=a+very+new+york+christmas">Barnes and Noble</a> on Greenwich Ave, I was asked to give a talk about my  book  A Very New York Christmas and to read from it. This was the first time I had ever done this ( I normally  just sit at the front entrance and sign copies!).</p>
<p>So quick on my toes, I spoke about the origin of the book, my ornaments, working in publishing, my covers, my art , and answered insightful questions from the audience. As I am  a village resident, it was exciting to do a signing there.</p>
<p>My next signing was at Bloomingdales- when I arrived my ornaments were basically already sold out! Very few books were left and by the end of the event, there were none left!  It was  a very busy day there and I got to see so many great people, even a  few of my friends made it.<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-231" title="bloomies" src="http://michaelstorrings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/bloomies.jpg" alt="bloomies" width="512" height="864" /></p>
<p>The 10th signing was  this past Saturday at Lord and Taylor.</p>
<p>Most of my stock was gone, and all of my books of A Very New York Christmas were sold out!</p>
<p>It must be due to the amazing  review from <a href="http://www.outblush.com/women/life/books-magazines/a-very-new-york-christmas/">Outblush.com</a></p>
<p>Until the next sketch!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">The  wonderful thing about signings is that you never know who you are going to meet or see.   At my signing at Lord and Taylor, I saw a colleague of mine from 20 years ago!  We worked together at Berkley/Putnam publishing and she was out shopping with her mom.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-172" title="ltsigning" src="http://michaelstorrings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/ltsigning.jpg" alt="ltsigning" width="576" height="778" /></p>
<p>It was a fun night- Lord &amp; Taylor had a beautiful set up in their Christmas Department  and was raising money for charity. It was also a pleasure to meet fellow Golden Glow member and ornament designer Melissa Byrne from Jingle Nog  as well as designer Michael Park.</p>
<p>I signed lots of copies of  <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0312377053/ref=s9_simz_gw_s0_p14_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&amp;pf_rd_s=center-2&amp;pf_rd_r=1XK7CRP3ABJTK9HTQZF8&amp;pf_rd_t=101&amp;pf_rd_p=470938631&amp;pf_rd_i=507846">A Very New York Christmas</a> and the Lord &amp; Taylor custom ornament.</p>
<p>My next event is at Bergdorf Goodman and should be very special as  Posey Pugglesworth will be making her debut as ambassador for the Storrings&#8217; line!  Come and meet us from 1-4 on the 7th floor!<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-173" title="poseyhead" src="http://michaelstorrings.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/poseyhead.jpg" alt="poseyhead" width="154" height="133" /></p>
