there are…

There are, at this moment, five copies of URBAN SHAMAN at the Anchorage Barnes & Noble. Shortly there will be pictures of me dancing around like an idiot at the Anchorage Barnes & Noble. :) I got to sign the copies and talk to a couple of managers and they said that while they can’t cross-shelve them in mystery, knowing that it was a mystery and what kind of mystery readers might like it (Hillerman, Coel, Thurlo) gave them the ability to recommend, so that’s good.

Of course, we can’t get to our email or anything, so there’s not a *great* deal of point in hanging out online for long. :) Having a lovely time so far, wish you were here. :) I am, incidentally, reading this book called URBAN SHAMAN, by C.E. Murphy. I have it on good authority that C.E. Murphy thinks it’s pretty weird to be reading a printed copy of one of her own books.…
