2.AM book launch was a success...


One of the things about being an artist and self publisher is the amount of shameless promotion that I have to do let people know who I am. The last few weeks has been actually a bit crazy, with me going out to the bars and clubs to talk about my latest creation, 2.AM, my second photography book. In addition, I have been caught much too drunk for my own good, cause I remember staying out so late one night that my friends convinced me to go have dim sum with them at 6am in the morning. Fxxx!

Anyway, the book launch was a blast. I had tons of fun, although moments before the launch, I was scrabbling around in shorts and a smelly sweaty shirt tugging my trolley cart of books to Billy Boy Cafe on my own. My assistant miscalculated the time, turned off his phone -- so there I was on my own. Luckily, he called and apologized profusely and got himself over to the launch pad in 30 minutes. I think about a 100 or so guests showed up, including a few of the models. Do you want to see the images?

For your info, if you are interested in getting a copy of the book, just go to my website at http://www.theasianmale.com and order online. Of course, you can also pick one up in Hong Kong at HMV or Page One. I just delivered the books to them yesterday....so they should be on the shelves by the weekend.
