AAAAAHHHHHH! I was supposed to be packed. I was supposed to have clean socks at the ready and my passport tucked neatly into my purse along with a book. I was supposed to be able to sit and watch bad TV tonight because I had it all together.

WRONG!

Tomorrow morning I leave for my REBEL ANGELS tour and I am still washing clothes. I have revisions to do on a short story. And I think I forgot to buy toothpaste. But I am going to take two seconds to post tour info. If any of y’all are in the Boston, Miami, Dallas, Seattle, or Los Angeles areas, here’s where I’ll be:

***This is a stock signing, but if you’re in the neighborhood and want to drop by while I’m sitting all by my lonesome at the table signing stock, I’d be thrilled.

I’m also really thrilled about all the writing workshops I’ll be leading at the following schools:
Dana Hall School, Boston, MA
Carrollton High School, Miami, FL
Hockaday, Dallas, TX
Holy Names Academy, Seattle, WA
The Archer School, Los Angeles, CA

Whoo-hooo! Okay, back to laundry. I’ll try to post from the road if I don’t succumb to eating all the $5.00 peanut M&Ms from the minibar and passing out on the bed in an exhausted-but-happy coma.

Wish me luck.
