I'm both incredibly excited and incredibly anxious . . . Be Different goes on sale in seven more days!
I'll be speaking in Atlanta on opening day, at the Georgia Autism Society of America conference. The following day, I'm speaking to the Connecticut Special Education folks in Hartford. You can get tickets to that here. On Thursday I'll be addressing the National Institutes of Health in Washington, DC.
After that I've got several months of travel in both the US and Canada. I'm looking forward to meeting more of my online friends in person this tour.
See you on the road!
