blast off!

I launched Vs. at McNally Robinson Booksellers on Nov. 4th to the world's best, kindest and most-attentive audience. Everyone laughing in the right spots and pin-drop quiet in between.

When I was finished, they clapped for a long time, then swarmed the signing table and said nice things.

I signed, and signed and signed (completely illegibly, of course). And the good people paid good money for my little book.

Which resulted in: bingo! #1! Not that I STAYED on the best seller list, mind you. But still...



Thanks to everyone who came out to the launch -- or who wanted to but couldn't due to germs or other emergencies/commitments -- and/or who have already bought a copy of the book. And thanks to McNally's for being so organized, supportive, and just all-'round great hosts. And thanks to Anvil, of course, for everything, and especially the wine.
