dishes in the sink and a cat on my head.

lagilmanI must, deductively, be home.
And so Phase 1 of Operation Traveling Meerkat has concluded with a little more excitement than I wanted (car-related hijinks, hopefully all sorted now). Readercon was lovely, the panels were all lively and well-attended, and both signing and reading left me with a warm glowy feeling of actually reaching new people
(the highlight of the signing had to be E. coming over with a thumb drive [containing the manuscript for FREE FALL, which I had been taunting her with] for me to sign. Which I of course did. Inscription and all.)
I was a dreadfully dull evening meerkat, however -- to bed by midnight each night. Limited drunken socializing. Considering the schedule for the next month or so, it seemed wise...
For those who may need reminding:
next Saturday I am signing at the Borders in Milford, CT, 2-4pm. EtA3: I am moron -- Necon (Rhode Island) the weekend before ComicCon! I Then I depart for lovely and hopefully not-too-hot California on the next Wednesday, starting with the San Diego ComicCon Thursday-Sunday, and then up to San Francisco for signings at Borderlands (Thursday evening, 7pm) and Clayton Books (Clayton, CA) on Saturday August 4th, 2pm. A foray into the wine country is also in the works, natch. Then I come home for a few days, and am off again to Armadillocon (Austin, TX). Hope to see people at each stop! Home mid-August, just in time to turn (whee!) 40.
Oh yeah, and on August 1st, I start writing Retrievers 6.
Preemptive tired, me.
EtA: as per newly-landed e-mail, looks like I will be bringing Major Freelance Project with me to California. Wheeee....
EtA2: during aforementioned hijinks, I read Sara Beth Durst's INTO THE WILD. It's YA in the classic sense -- meaning us adults with a sensawondah will love it, too. Much fun. Recommended. Go, buy.
