Laura--you asked about subsequent project or "right on the heels of the current novel. Yes, yes, yes. In the process of dealing with copy edits for an upcoming publication, I stepped away for 6 weeks to spend 4 weeks working on a new novel and 2 weeks "connecting" with other writers and family. For me, writing is life-giving. I think that's true for you as well. We are so lucky that way. "Onto the next," I always say.

Laura— Will you be doing any national on-the-road promotion?

You are so amazing, and I guess you’ve heard this already. 💕

Thank you, Camille! I don't have a lot of national promo on my list; the big one is the library conference in Washington, DC, in late June. I'll be there visiting my parents and I was invited to join a panel. Otherwise, a signing in Berkeley and a reading in Bend!

Thank you, Val! It's vintage, circa 1950s, from The Vault in Beaverton.

Yay to more books! It seems like the more books I have out, the more new projects I'm gestating. Ideas beget ideas.
