I'll Be Blogging About the Tour!

Boy, where have the last two weeks gone? Time has flown by as I've been getting organized for the trip, shopping for the trip, giving a series of newspaper and radio interviews…and being on the phone way too much!

But most of all, I've been writing. I've had some projects that had to be completed (like line edits for Missing) and other deadlines I've set for myself (like write 120 pages over six days). I'm proud to say that I got everything done, and now I just have to pack for the big trip~and go pick up my daughter today from college so she can take me to the airport tomorrow.

Oh, and figure out how to take everything I *think* I need for a 9 day trip…For me, this is harder than you would think. I don't pack light. I miss the days of being able to take two suitcases for a weekend trip. Really!

The other day on FB, Amy Clipston was asking folks what 'necessity' they always took with them on trips. You know, those things (besides clothes and toiletries) that you need.

My answers?

1) Books! (by way of my Kindle now!)

2) My robe and slippers!

My husband, who travels quite a lot, loves his Ipad. He reads books on it, checks sports updates…plays Angry Birds!  Other than that, he doesn't need much.

What about you? What is something that you need to make your time away from home a success?

See you tomorrow from Indiana!

God bless,

Shelley
