Late hours will be the rule tonight for
bookstores across Arkansas. Parties are planned to begin selling
Bill Clinton`s much-anticipated 957-page autobiography "My Life".
At That Bookstore in Blytheville, the party starts at 10:30 Monday night. Owner Mary Gay Shipley has asked customers to bring
in their own Clinton memorabilia for a show-and-tell of how the
former president touched their lives.
Carla Swim at Hastings in Fayetteville said the bookstore will
likely have a midnight party. She said she`s sure customers will be
flipping through the pages looking for familiar names.
In Clinton`s birthplace at Hope, interested readers can buy the
autobiography at a couple of places -- Wal-Mart and Clinton`s
birthplace.
In Little Rock, WordsWorth books will open at 11pm and in North Little Rock, Books-A-Million will start a party at 9pm.
Clinton will be in Arkansas at least twice to promote "My
Life." He`ll be at a yet-to-be-announced location in Pulaski
County on July second and at a Fayetteville Wal-Mart on July third.
