Tales from the road . . . stop #1
The first stop on the Look Me in the Eye paperback tour was River Run books in Portsmouth, NH. I told stories, answered questions, and signed books for a few hours, starting at 7PM. My brother was at this same bookstore a few months back, talking about his new book, A Wolf at the Table.
It was a good beginning . . . the first time I've spoken about the New and Improved version of the book, and what's going on now. The event was co-sponsored by the Birchtree Center, a local autism/Asperger program.
Right after that, I did an interview for the Psychjourney Podcast series. You can listen to it here: http://psychjourney_blogs.typepad.com/psychjourney_podcasts/2008/09/look-me-in-the.html
I've left River Run with plenty of signed copies, and I've also signed the stock at the Portsmouth B&N. I try and sign stock wherever I go . . . right now, you can find signed books at the Amherst/Northampton independent book stores (where I live) plus B&N stores in Holyoke and Hadley, MA, and Enfield CT. You can get signed hardcovers and paperbacks at Borders in Holyoke, MA.
Before the event, I was able to shoot these photos of the seaport. The first shot shows three Moran tugs at rest. The second shows the Hamburg Pearl delivering a cargo of salt to the mineral terminal. Her load of salt will be spread on roads all over New England in just a few more months.
For any of you in Vermont or upstate New York . . . my next appearance is tomorrow, Saturday, at the Burlington Book Festival. I will be appearing at one, followed by a small group discussion with a local Asperger group and an author dinner that night. Stop by if you're around.
And it's just one more week till the British Invasion, followed by my west coast tour - LA, San Francisco, Boulder, Vail, Portland, Seattle, Dayton. I hope to see many of you on the road.

Sounds like the River Run Reading went well too. I am still disappointed I missed it...come back to NH! Actually, there is a really cool, very cute bookstore here in Wolfeboro...I should talk to them about you...hmmmm.
I've been to London and Edinburgh, and I can't wait to go back again someday. : )

As long as you're going to be in St. Charles, IL in December, you might think about having your publicist to contact The Book Stall in Winnetka. Also Barbara's Books in Oak Park. They're both indy booksellers and have an active list of author events. My husband and I would love to meet you in person.
Best,

Ellen . . . I do expect to do some Florida dates closer to the holidays. Stay tuned.
Melody . . .I'm sorry to say I don't have any English dates scheduled.
And Plant3rry - I used an HDR plug in for Photoshop, as you suspected
