Our sincere efforts to produce an inclusive calendar of book and author events for the month proved to be sincere but not inclusive.

Here are more additions to this very active month:

Tomorrow: Ellen White, who worked as a publicist and writer for the Carnegie Museum of Art in the 1990s, returns to promote her new book, "Simply Irresistible: Unleash Your Inner Siren and Mesmerize Men With Help From the Most Famous and Infamous Women in History" (Running Press, $12.95).

White will be at the Barnes & Noble outlet, Waterworks Mall near Aspinwall, at 1:30 p.m.

Friday: The Bottle Works Ethnic Arts Center in Johnstown presents readings by poet P.K. Harmon and writer Sarah Strickley.
