Atlanta, New York, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver. In all these cities, bookstores are hosting readings by Mike Jones, the Denver masseur who announced last November that his client of three years was Ted Haggard, president of the National Association of Evangelicals. You can also add Minneapolis, since Jones will be at our store on June 21.
Who's not on that list? Colorado Springs, home of Haggard's former congregation, New Life Church, and arguably the place where folks most want to hear from Jones. The local Borders and Barnes & Noble stores aren't hosting the author, though if you want to give them money in exchange for Jones' book I Had to Say Somthing, they'll accept it.
Independent bookstores support independent voices. Take advantage of being in the big city (or at least within driving distance) and come hear Mike Jones. Otherwise, you might as well live in Colorado Springs.
