    Christopher Moore is on February 16th at UBS. He’s always fun. Oh and let me check to see if we are going out with Patty after the signing. If so, you’re welcome to come.

    Huh. I’m … erm … unaware of this Hugo House event.
    Could I ask where you got that information? Perhaps I need to compose a few emails …

    Cherie – all events listed are from the UW Bookstore events calendar. I’ve dropped them a note that they listed the wrong author that day. Sorry about that!

    Correct info from the Hugo House:

    Fantastic Fiction readings and conversation salon with Eileen Gunn
    Eileen Gunn, winner of the Nebula award and author of “Stable Strategies and Others,” reads and discusses her work. $5. Co-sponsored by Richard Hugo House. http://www.nwmediaarts.com
    Cabaret

    What IS it about Seattle? So many great authors live up round there, too: Cherie Priest, Richelle Mead, Katie MacAlister, Kat Richardson…

    Is it all the rain? :-P

    Actually, a big THANK YOU. I just surfed around and found that PB will be coming down this way, too. Score!

    Cool beans, and thanks. I needed to send them an email anyway, about something they’re looking to rope me into later this month. I thought perhaps it was this, but it was something else … all is very confusing, I admit.

    Um, if you get me signed copies of Kim Harrison’s and Patricia’s books, I’ll heart you forever. Just let me know how much I’d owe you. I’ll send you the money. :D

    What can I say? Seattle is awesome. Except for the snow thing. But it doesn’t do that very often. Really. At least it didn’t used to. :(

    Mark – that would be wonderful!
    Renee – What is our secret? A combo of rain and coffee? A culture that nurtures creativity and entrepreneurial pursuits? I dunno, but I’m loving it. We have so many authors here – it’s thrilling!
    Kaitlin – you could come up and visit for the signings. It’s only 3 hours away!
