Napierville is on the west edge of Chicago. I'm not familiar with it, but on a Sunday I'd be willing to explore strange new 'burbs!

Because books.
Crap, did I spell it wrong?
I was going to tell you ... now! I told Jilli, I know. I'm a little overwhelmed at the moment.
But yay! We actually were supposed to do one in Mill Creek, too, but it got cancelled. No idea why.

Amy, any chance you'll be coming out to the Midwest?

Nope, Chicago-ish is where we get off. Sadly.

Ah, University Bookstore. Who knows-- nice bookstore, but they're a little bit odd.
And the BN in Lynnwood is AWESOME-- so, so author friendly and the CRM, Christy, LOVES YA and is an absolute doll.

Ah, rats. Double-rats because I've had to cancel my plans to go visit SF and/or Seattle this October.

I sort of wish we had been able to spread out a little bit more, but it's also dependent on the other authors, all of whom are well established but Jocelyn and me. So if they did, like, Southeast like time, or Midwest, I guess they try to switch it up?

Naperville. It's about 10 miles west of where I grew up in the western suburbs. It's upscale and intellectual and frequently shows up on "best place to live" lists.

I hope people can come to some of them! I mean, I'm never going to be by myself -- every event includes four of us, so. But I want to see some of MY people! And also not to pass out of jet lag and sheer overwhelmedness.

So when are you going to be out here, Amy?
