November 14, 2009:

Pouring out, bucketing down, and off I went to Greenfield, Mass, 20 minutes north, to the World Eye Bookstore to do a group book signing. Heidi was meeting me there (she had teens to drop off first in Amherst). As always, I arrived first  (next came Jesse Haas and husband, Norton Juster, Margot Apple) so I did some re-holiday shopping. I hate doing last minute run on the stores.

They'd already sold out of  Heidi's and my Sleep, Black Bear, Sleep before the signing becaue of a lovely article...
