A quick speculative question

[cupcake_goth]

Caveat the First! This is entirely brainstorming and speculation, peoples. NOTHING has been decided, scheduled, or writ in stone.

Caveat the Second! But this is a serious question. So any feedback, advice, or information that you can give me will be VERY HELPFUL.

With those caveats out of the way: There is a chance that there will be a Gothic Charm School book event in NYC. But, I need to be able to pull a decent-sized crowd. As in, a minimum of 50 people attending. If I were to do a reading/signing in NYC, do you folks think I would be able to guarantee my publisher/publicity peeps an audience of at least 50? I, of course, would promote the event on the GCS site, Twitter, LJ, Facebook, and anywhere else I could, in addition to my publisher promoting it.

::stuffs a cookie in the mouth of The Voice Of Modesty to keep it quiet:: I think that a GCS event would be able to draw at least 50 people, but I don't know AND may be crazy. This is there I turn to you people for feedback and sanity checks.

What's the time-frame? Do they have a particular date/week/month in mind? I'd hope that a shout-out to the East Coast community would net you enough people. . .

Once the date is nailed down, there are so many ways to get the word out. Trying to get people to commit when it's vague is really hard, though.

It would probably be in July. That's the most info I have right now.

scarletina has NYC connections. Maybe she could help spread the word eastwise.
