Ginger. Just...damn.
(Teppy, this challenge has produced some great pieces.)
Deb, that is (in a non-jinxy way) great!
Good luck. Try not to kill people. Hands! Hands!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Cindy!
Any progress on picking out a store in your area for me to descend upon? I'm firming up the calendar, with four firm west coast dates, two more being batted back and forth, and Deena mentioning an Ohio libraries swing. So I'm putting this stuff together.

The last time we had the conversation, it seemed that those who know (and much better than I do) think Kate's Mystery Books in Cambridge is a great place.
Maybe if you could tell the list again (because we're so chatty, we get distracted from our mission) exactly how we should proceed (and when you'd like to come to town), and we can start making phone calls.

Kate's Mystery Books it shall be. I need to ping the list and find out from everyone when they're free to show up for an event.

Wow, Ginger. Powerful.
Working on one of my own here, too. Will post soon.

Oh yes, the book is coming along. It's percolating back there in my brain, and when it's ready, it's going to explode on to the page like rage, like passion, like perfection. It's going to sit on that Borders' book shelf all pretty right between "Rowling" and "Tolkein", and soon there will be fanfic sites popping up online, unlikely pairings of my hapless characters in black leather slashes. Yeah, I'm going to find that perfect moment of inspiration, and all of that work I've done so far, all the thinking and charting and character sketches will pay off. It's going to happen any second. I'm going to write this book.

I'm going to be brave enough to walk away from this job sometime soon. I'm going to see an opportunity and snatch it. I'm going to find another source of health insurance and not face another day of taunting teens and rude parents. I'm going to go on vacation in September and eat lunch out on a school day; I'm going to oversleep in the morning and not panic. I'm going to have the courage to make that change, and it won't matter that there are times I really love it. I won't miss it. I won't. I'm leaving any second now. Soon.

Kristin nails it, both times.
edit: one spelling correction, in the first one: percOlating.

Thanks, Deb. Corrected. I knew it was wrong when I typed it, but I didn't have the energy to look up the correct spelling.
