For a change this time, none of my appearances were in California or Edinburgh, but in Minneapolis, at Magers and Quinn (I was happy to be there despite the pic), at Comma, a Bookshop (lovely wee place) and at Open Book, Minneapolis International Airport. All with a great bunch of Minneapolis writers: Jess Lourey, Joshua Moehling, Wendy Webb, Sarah Stonich and Kristi Belcamino.
