Blog To Book Launches Breakup Babe
We haven't read the novel that Rebecca Agiewich spun out of her blog Breakup Babe, but we are familiar with the site itself and once upon a time subscribed to the Babe's tales of woe. The Breakup Babe blog chronicled her various spectacular breakups and attempts to date again in their wake, but it's been kinda idle recently and we understand that blogging doesn't exactly increase one's value in the dating pool (shh, don't tell Seattlest contributors). In fact, we're willing to bet that Rebecca can't wait to have at that blog like a French teen on a Zidane poster and rip it right off the wall, but as she explains in this P-I interview, her publishers are hoping it will stick around for the time being. Rebecca, can you let us know when you plan on the ceremonious unposting of Breakup Babe so we can help you celebrate?
If the internets weren't conspiring to drive Seattlest insane you would have seen this in time to attend Rebecca's reading at Third Place Books last night. The internet giveth and the internet taketh away, however. You'll have to wait until August, 17 for a reading that Seattlest tips you to beforehand.
