Faithful followers of my “First Book Tour Blog” (all two of you) May remember …   I had a sizzling opening in L.A. It was 113 degrees out. Only incredibly faithful, intrepid, stupid or reptilian friends dared venture from the air conditioned lairs to the wilds of Pasadena. It…

I saw a guy with devil horn implants today No lie. He was outside the upstairs hole in the wall I read at. He had red eyes too! Really strange reading! The manager said there was an anarchist lemming library upstairs…I pictured books jumping off into the sea…..Turned out to be…

Checking in at motel 6… A nasty, pasty, soft fleshed check in person. “You can wait.” She snarled as I stood at the desk. “Is there hot water in the room for tea?” I asked. “Yeah, in the sink.” I imagined how awful it must be to work nights at…

Tomorrow interview and reading. I refuse to take any Oxycontin tomorrow! My GPS is inhabited by a frustrated poet. It invents lodging with lovely, strange names,like “house underwater,” and Creekside inn,” and when you follow directions they end in the woods.
