Virginia: Howdy

I have arrived in Richmond without incident, and am presently ensconced in a hotel room watching TV. Yay! I like TV. Also: I like room service.

I'm settling in to make an early night of it, even though it's not even suppertime West Coast time – because I have to meet a nice man at 7:50 in the morning to take me over to the local CBS affiliate for a morning interview.* Mind you, that's 4:50 a.m. West Coast time. And after the interview, I have to go tootling around the city signing stock at various assorted stores.

I have no problem whatsoever tootling around the city signing stock at various assorted stores. But I am crossing my fingers for a nap break in there, someplace.

Anyway! Tomorrow night, November 16 – at the Fountain Bookstore – come out and join me for my first official southern bookstore event for the Clockwork Century books! Since Dreadnought begins right here in Richmond … well, let's just say it's extra-special, shall we?

*In fact, I was reminded of this appointment via a phone call at 7:20 this morning. I hadn't forgotten. And if I hadn't been awake (I was en route to the airport), I might've been cranky at yet another East Coast person whose grasp of time zones matches my grasp of hobbit-neutering.
