Updated HTDYF Tour Info
Just to let you all know that the mighty How To Ditch Your Fairy Tour begins on Monday in Northern California. For all those complaining that I’m not going to Southern California: it’s not up to me, it’s down to demand and my publicist.
The tour page is constantly being updated with correct addresses and times and extra events. Today I added a couple of in-store stock signings as well as the address and time for the Schuler’s event in Walker, Michigan.
What is an in-store stock signing you ask? It means I’ll be stopping in at a book shop and signing but I won’t be reading, or doing Q&A, or juggling, or anything fancy. But if you’re in the area I’d be more than happy to sign books for you and/or chat.
For those who asked, yes, I am doing many school visits. However, those events are not public. That’s why I don’t list them. I’ve only done a couple of school appearances before so I’m dead excited. USian schools are a total mystery to me. I hope to learn much. Maybe I’ll be able to set my next book in a USian school?
I am going to try to keep blogging every day while on tour. Fingers crossed that erratic intramanets and exhaustion don’t get in my way. After all, a day without blogging is a wasted day.

Have a good tour! If you want to celebrate surviving your first stop by eating incredibly cheese-laden pizza in a building that was a brothel in the 1800s, you should definitely go to Old Chicago Pizza on Petaluma Blvd North. I’d come to Copperfield’s to say hello, but alas, I moved to Boston last year. Say hello to Nor-Cal for me!

Yay! That’s like five minutes from our house … and it is on Angie’s birthday! Too bad you won’t be here a night later for the annual Cheese-and-Chocolate FondueFest.
