From the Road: Blurry but Unbowed....

(Oh dear. This isn't going to end well.)You peeps? You still out there? Can you tell me what day it is? I think it might be Wednesday, but I'm not sure.The book tour goes well--I've just written a little bit about it thus far for the Omnivoracious blog, including a mention of the remarkable Tio's Tacos.I've also started guest blogging over at Borders' Babel Clash, along with David Anthony Durham and Paul Tremblay, who I'll be reading with at the Boston Borders on November 20th. Check out posts on book covers, reality in fantasy, and more.(The awesome students at CalState San Bernardino)I'm heading back into Los Angeles this afternoon following a lovely event and dinner at Cal State San Bernardino, set up by the maximally talented Glen Hirshberg, who is truly a scholar and gentleman.Tonight I am at Book Soup on the Sunset Strip, starting at 7pm. I'll be telling the "professional cockroach" story, reading from Finch, giving a teaser of Booklife, and taking questions. I hope to see you there. Come on out and I promise you an entertaining show.Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming. Voila! Huzzah!
