Barnes and Noble, Orem, UT
I'd never had the chance to sign in Orem, it was totally wonderful! It was a brand-new crowd, not a single person had been to one of my event's before, which made it doubly fun. Here I am with my roadies!

Powell's, Portland OR
Powell's in Portland, more specifically, the Beaverton store, is one of my favorite stores to sign in. The readers are always enthusiastic and have great questions for me. I wasn't sure what I'd find as I'd been gone for so long, but it was as wonderful as always, and it felt in many ways, like coming home! Thank you, everyone who came out!
Me and my Portland roadies! Hope to see you all again next year! (Or maybe even this October!)
I didn't know it when they came through the line, but they all came together!
He's holding an ARC of Dead Witch Walking there. Whoo!

Tucson Festival of the Book, Tucson AZ
I haven't been to the festival in ages. It felt great to get back. I was only able to swing one full day at the festival, but they kept me busy with two, absolutely wonderful panels. It is one of the best-run festivals I've attended, and it was great to spend a few days in Tucson, my adopted winter home (when I can swing it!)
If you've never been, it's a great celebration of books and reading.
First panel was super, with, left to right, Tracy Wolff, our moderator Victoria, Olivie Blake, me, and Constance Fay.
The room was full, and the questions wonderful.
Second panel was in the big tent, and between the four of us, it was a packed house. left to right is Tracy Wolff, David Slayton, me, and TJ Klune. You can see our excellent moderator over Tracy's shoulder, John. Super panel.
