Not really Reaper tour anymore: Missoula!
Such an honor to get to do this event in downtown Missoula, at the museum. Standing room only—there was even a spillover area (I see now): And, wow, to be introduced by Lois Welch and Chris La Tray: And then it was off to the reading races. Hit a couple small pieces, then it was

Don’t Fear the Reaper tour: Boulder
Wow, ending this whole wild ride right back where I live—where I usually live, anyway. So cool. Have never packed this place either, but, there were people sitting to either side as well.

Don’t Fear the Reaper tour: Pittsburgh

Don’t Fear the Reaper Tour: Chicago
Started out talking with Becky Spratford for B&N: And . . . it’s here, still: Then it was hanging with Tim Seeley and Jim Terry: And the next day I was all over town (thanks to Jim), signing every Reaper that would stay under my pen: Which all led up to . . . LAUNCH
