Apparently I Have A Book In Stores Now

Okay, so I'm having trouble uploading photos and adding links right now for reasons involving postdata and I have no idea what that means so the nice little cover of my book I wanted to post here will have to wait. But wait! I spoke too soon!



Anyhoo, the point is, you can buy the book now, YOU MUST BE THIS HAPPY TO ENTER, it's on Powells and Amazon and in most stores, from what folks tell me, even though the official release date is February 8.

And if you're feeling all Frenchy, there's a bonus story in the French edition, also just out, which is called BANANA LOVE (another story in the collection), and you can order that from Amazon.fr.



Chicagoans, please come to the release reading/celebration:

Thurs., February 7, 7pm
Quimby's
1854 W. North Ave.
Chicago, IL

Special home-style treats for book-buyers!

More Stuff That’s Going On

My cold almost went away, and then it came back.
My dog is asleep on the sofa with his head on the arm. Cuteness level elevated.
