One way we’re trying to bring readers together and to talk about Johnny’s six lessons is through a set of informal Bunko breakfasts.  At certain stops in my travels, I’ll find a well-located coffee joint, set a date and time, and invite whoever wants to participate to join us for an hour of conversation.  (Added bonus #1: The coffee and food is on me.  Added bonus #2: Everyone gets free Johnny Bunko chopsticks.)   

I’m happy to announce that the first gathering will take place tomorrow (Tuesday April 22) at 8am the Starbucks at 443 Boylston Street in Boston. 

Since this is the maiden voyage and since we’ve had only a day or two to pull it together, I don’t expect a huge turnout. But it’s actually easier to have a great conversation with three or four people than with 30 or 40.  So if you’ve got time, please join us.  And if you’re roaming around Cambridge tonight (Monday, April 21), stop by the Harvard Coop at 1400 Massachusetts Avenue for a 7pm book talk.

Also, the next Bunko breakfast will be Thursday afternoon (at a time and place soon to be announced) in Chicago.

    Pancakes in the afternoon sounds like a very Bunko move. Breakfast cereals are for all-day eating.

    Indeed. Johnny and Diana believe breakfast is a state of mind — not a time of day.

    I bought Johnny Bunko and read it last week. This is my usual Starbucks, and I was there this morning at 7:55. There was no sign or anything. I totally would have hung around for this! Fail!

    Jason —

    Sorry, sorry. We were sitting outside on the front left-hand side (as you face the store) with a copy of the book propped up on the table. Apologies. Zap me ([email protected]) your mailing address. I’ll send you a signed copy and some Johnny Bunko chopsticks as recompense!

    Cheers,
    Dan

    Dan,

    Thanks for the generous offer and the quick response. I know we corresponded via email, however I wanted to respond here as well. It’s really no big deal; I was just sad to have missed it. I’ll keep an eye out for future events in the Boston area. I read Johnny Bunko and enjoyed it and I look forward to future discussions.
