Good reviews so far and I'm travelling around the Pacific NW over the next few months doing readings and presentations. If anyone buys it from Amazon, please help me out and leave a complimentary comment/review (unless you hate it, of course!) If anyone wants it signed, send me a copy and I can do that for you. For my mailing address, just email me at emuranch@centurytel.net Thanks - and sorry for the interruption!

I did a reading at Auntie's, Spokane's largest indie book store last night. More than 120 people showed up - some sort of record I think. And Monday I'm at the UW bookstore in Seattle. I think I'll be at the Village Bookstore in one of those "B" towns near Seattle - Bellingham? Belleview? Something like that. But that's not for a few months. People seem to like reading about floods and other natural disasters.
