Willkommen to America

Over the weekend I was in Leavenworth, Washington, a former railroad-and-timber town that reimagined itself as a Bavarian theme village in the late 1960s. The local indie bookstore, A Book For All Seasons, is always one of my favorite tour stops.

I also gave a reading at the Wenatchee Public Library. It turns out Nancy Pearl had been there a week earlier, saying nice things about Lovecraft Country and The Mirage, so we had a great crowd. Thanks to everyone who showed up!

My next event will be this Friday, March 18, at Pulpfiction Books on Main Street in Vancouver, BC, starting at 7 PM.
