I had dinner, then because it’d stopped raining, decided to go ahead and walk up to the B&N that I knew was on Pine & 7th because the nice concierge told me so (actually, I knew it was on Pike & 7th, but it turned out my knowing was a little wrong) to see if they had any copies of URBAN SHAMAN for me to sign. I went and looked at the new fiction, then looked in the SF section, then thought to check the new books in the SF…
tonight…
Tonight I’ll probably have more time to sit down and write up more cohesive thoughts about the interviews and whatnot, but for the moment I’ve just staggered back out of bed and I’m trundling off to do family things in not very many minutes here. (Yay!) An amusing highlight from yesterday morning, though: Got done with interviews at about 8:15 and wobbled around getting ready to take a nap. Collapsed into bed. Two minutes later, the phone rang. It was one of the PR people, calling to check up on…
great interviews
This morning’s first two interviews were great. Apparently the first one was webcast, but I didn’t know that until I was on the phone, so I couldn’t post about it.

just a quick note
First interview this morning didn’t go quite as well as last night’s Anchorage interview, which I thought went quite well. The station this morning double-booked, so I ended up with only about 5 minutes, which I’m not exactly sure was worth getting up at 2:30 in the morning for. OTOH, it was five minutes of exposure I wouldn’t have otherwise had, and it was right at the end of their hour, so people tuning in for the next segment might’ve caught it, so that’s cool. Last night’s interview was fun.…
