ARLINGTON, Mass., Oct. 30, 2017 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — After three years of work, first time author Glenn Koenig is celebrating the publication of his first book, \u201cA Man Wearing a Dress\u201d (ISBN: 978-0998583303) now available from publisher Message Rain. He plans to host a book release party on Tuesday, Nov. 14 from 7 to 9 p.m., at the Robbins Library, 700 Mass. Ave., in Arlington center.<\/p>\n
\nAt the event, Koenig will sign copies of the book, read excerpts, and answer questions. The event is free of charge and the public is invited. Copies of the book will be available for purchase, and refreshments will be served.<\/p>\n
The book is primarily a memoir, but also includes an important section regarding the author\u2019s optimism in today\u2019s uncertain times.<\/p>\n
\u201cLooking at the big picture, I am very positive about where we\u2019re headed, even if it doesn\u2019t seem that way right now,\u201d Koenig says. \u201cI think it\u2019s natural for people to feel a lot of anxiety these days, but I\u2019m convinced that we\u2019re going to see our way through it.\u201d He has a strong belief that we make more progress through collaboration and mutual support than we do by blaming others.<\/p>\n
Koenig is asking anyone interested in attending the event to please obtain a ticket by going to his web site – www.messagerain.com<\/a> – selecting the \u201cAppearances & Events\u201d menu, and using the \u201cGet Tickets\u201d button to register.<\/p>\n The tickets are free, but he would like to get a head count in order to plan. Registered ticket holders will receive additional information regarding transportation and parking. For those unable to attend, the book is available at bookstores everywhere, as well as from online sellers.<\/p>\n A resident of Arlington for over 40 years, authoring a book represents a new stage in Koenig\u2019s life. Previously, his career included work as a software engineer, a video producer, and a technical writer. He has also devoted significant time to volunteering in Arlington, including sixteen years as an elected Town Meeting Member, serving on the Vision 2020 steering committee, and as the first president of ACMI, Arlington\u2019s Community Media studio.<\/p>\n \u201cSome early reviews are coming in, and they\u2019re very positive, so I\u2019m looking forward to a good turn out,\u201d says Koenig.<\/p>\n To learn more, visit: http:\/\/www.messagerain.com\/books<\/a>.<\/p>\n
