Nelson Aspen Embarks on Happy Hour NYC Book Tour

Award-winning journalist and author Nelson Aspen will celebrate the release of his latest book, a semi-autobiographical novel set in 1980's New York City: "Dancing Between the Raindrops!"  A wild, Coming-of-Age story of four friends in the era of big hair, padded shoulders and punk rock, Aspen admits "I think it would make Carrie Bradshaw blush!"

In a unique spin on a traditional tour of bookstores, Aspen will instead opt for appearing across Manhattan in some of his favorite bars, clubs and restaurants.  Enjoy an 80's music playlist, specialty cocktails and meet the author, in person!  Get signed copies of "Dancing Between the Raindrops" for only $15.99 each...in time for holiday gift giving (Cash or Venmo).  These venues are some of the hottest in NYC, so plan to hang out and make a night of it.  If you can't be there in person, pick up a copy of the book on Amazon!
