We’re Baaaaaack!
. . .And we’re whupped. Seriously. Book tour is no joke. And it’s definitely not for sissies. It is in fact, a lot like the movie Groundhog Day—in different cities.

4:30 alarm for 7AM flight.
9AM meet your escort at baggage claim
9:30 AM Drive by stock signing

11:30 AM arrival for reading /signing event (and a bathroom yea!!)
12:00-2PM Bookstore signing event
2:30 PM Drive by stock signing on way to hotel check in

But we had a BALL! Thank you for coming out to see us--it made crowded, uncomfortable planes, Whoppers for breakfast and sleep deprivation all worth it.
