chickwriterSpent Saturday sleeping in prep for Sunday's signing trip. Seems I can't do more than one event a weekend, or I'm just tuckered out.
Drove over to Donna Andrew's house Saturday evening and had dinner at a lovely Japanese place (yummy sushi!). Ran into Barb Goffman, Agatha award nominee, who then joined us for sushi, sake and lovely writerly conversation.
Stayed over at Donna's so we could get an early start to Richmond and Creatures 'n' Crooks Bookstore. The lovely Ellen Crosby joined us and we had a fabulous trip down 95 - NO TRAFFIC! (the gods were with us).
Had brunch at the lesbian coffee bar around the corner (yummy food) and then a fabulous signing. We were joined by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ellenbyerrum, and Richmond author J. B. Stanley. Loads of great people showed up and we did quite well.
Of course, I made out like a bandit buying books:
Joe Hill's Heart Shaped Box
Kat Richardson's Poltergeist
and of course, copies of Donna's latest: The Penguin Who Knew Too Much and Ellen C's latest: The Chardonnay Charade. I already have a copy of Ellen's B's Grave Apparel.
The trip back was less easy - loads of traffic on 95, but we were able to cut out some of it by taking a back way to Reston so I could drop of Donna and Ellen C.
Home now and tired. Work in the a.m.
