The last time you heard from me I posted a hasty note then dove into the depths of late last week. Now it’s Week 4 and I’m writing this from my hotel room in Atlanta. Today and tomorrow are busy with schools and stock signings. Wednesday and Thursday will be slower paced as I participate in the Miami Book Festival, then it’ll be off to New Orleans, which I am very excited about!
And next week will be even wilder, but I’ll talk about that later…..
This BookPage interview with me explores the way I researched CHAINS.
I was interviewed at the DC-area public TV station for a website aimed at teachers and parents. When the tape goes live, I’ll let you know.
Then it was off to Politics and Prose for a stock signing – they have an incredible selection of books and cool non-book items.
This is what the last three days of last week looked like: thousands of enthusiastic kids in cafetauriums and libraries. It was awesome.
My evening events were mostly attended by teachers and writers, including my friend Kimmie.
In South Hadley, MA, we had a library full of high school students listening to me in person, and another group participating via Skype connection on the computer. That was fun.
When I was signing stock at Odyssey Bookshop, one of their local authors wandered in – Leslea Newman.
Thank you, Rebecca of Odyssey for a tremendous day!
