I have finally completed my packing for tour. I think. It's hard to prepare for 29 days of surprises, so I always pack for 29 days of everything going perfectly as planned and assume that the sheer weight of that packing expectation will shape reality.
And if not, I can always buy an extra set of toe-nail clippers in Chicago.
Here is the tour schedule, for anyone who missed it before. Know that I will be wearing something that is in that pictured suitcase. Know also that I'll be at the Texas Book Festival and will have more details on October Texas dates very soon. And good golly. I hope you enjoy
The Raven Boys if you pick it up these next few weeks.
