Book Tour…
WASHINGTON, D.C.
My book tour began last week with a visit to Olsson’s Books and Records in Washington D.C. Though the audience was rather small (I blame the freezing weather for that), the reading went well. Thanks very much to Tony Ritchie and the staff at Olsson’s for their help. I hope they manage to sell all the copies I signed in advance. Hopefully the Washington Post review of Tales from the Town of Widows, which will run on the Sunday, February 4th edition, will give the book a boost.
Audience Highlights: An old man holding a copy of my book, searching for the passages I was reading, making sure I didn’t skip a single word. After the reading he left without buying the book. I guess I skipped a few lines and pissed him off.
RHINEBECK, NY
My second stop was at Oblong Books & Music in Rhinebeck, NY, on Saturday. Now that was a great audience, both in numbers and level of interest. After the reading, they posed many interesting questions and even asked me to read some more. The reading was filmed and it will soon be on YouTube.com. Thanks to Carrie Majer, Dick Hermans and the rest of the staff at Oblong for organizing the reading. Also, thanks to my friend Hillary Jordan who suggested I read at Oblong, and who together with Kathryn Windley publicized the event among their many friends.
Audience Highlights: Everyone. What a wonderful audience!

he evening I arrived in Iowa City, Prairie Lights Books (the iconic Iowa City bookstore where I was to read the next evening), had received a threat about a book on abortion that was to be the subject of that evening’s “Live from Prairie Lights.” Consequently, the reading was cancelled and the store closed earlier. It’s disgraceful that the same people who claim to “protect” life keep threatening it. My own reading, however, went well. No one threatened anyone and the room was packed (we even had people standing in the back). The Q&A section was marked by several important diamond
questions both from the auidence and from Julie Englander, who hosted the event. The event was recorded and will air at 8 p.m. on Saturday, February 10th, and at 7 p.m on Sunday, February 11th, on WSUI-AM 910, WOI-AM 640 and KRNI-AM 1010. A program will also be broadcast at 5 p.m on Sunday on KSUI-FM 91.7.
Audience Highlights: Michele Morano, a friend and soon-to-be-published writer, who drove four hours from Chicago to see me and wholesale body jewelry to meet with her publishers.
