So, there we have it — the official book tour where I show up and do my little BOOK SONG and my LITERARY ULULATIONS. I hope you’ll come by!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some quick As to your potential Qs —<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Not My Town??<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, the world is home to a lot of places and I cannot go to them all. I would like to! I’d love to do a huuuuuge book tour where I hit every state in the country and even some international pockets but that’s just not feasible. Plus, I try when possible to cover territory I either haven’t been before or at least haven’t been recently<\/em> — next book tour would likely look very different! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Listen, if I could come right to your house, I would. I’d come over for dinner! It’d be great! But I can only go where I am summoned by the ancient rituals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Should I Come?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bookstores are cool! Booksellers are cool! Buying books from bookstores makes you cool by proxy<\/em>. More to the point — hey, there are billionaires out there, and huge corporations, and isn’t it nice to be able to buy from smaller bookstores as a bit of counterprogramming? It won’t save the world but every little bit helps, and buying from bookstores is good for the store, for me, for you, for the overall bookish ecosystem. Support bookstores!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What If I Can’t Come?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bookstores I’m visiting are likely able to hold a book for you and I can still sign it — many will even ship directly to you<\/em> if you aren’t near to any of these. In fact, my own local, Doylestown Bookshop, will ship to you and<\/em> I will give you a unique book-specific personalization alongside<\/em> some very cool stickers by Natalie Metzger which maaaaaaay be these —<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And all you gotta do to get a copy from D-town Bookshop is order here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Note: the cool stickers will also be coming with me on tour, obvs.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, if you can come to the events, please do. I figure I’m going to be wading out into the chaos factory that is America, so it’d be great if you swam out through the madness to say hi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failing that, buy from one of these stores! They’re where the books live. My books. So check ’em out. OKAY LOVE YOU BYE<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
