On Nov. 6, Jake and I had a champagne toast, celebrating my book release. Since then, I’ve been giving readings\/presentations on my book tour, talking about Marbles and meeting people, it’s been amazing.<\/p>\n

Some highlights: well, Marbles is a\u00a0NY Times bestseller<\/a>. I’m on Morning Edition<\/a> today. (Also archived<\/a>.) The review in the LA Times<\/a>\u00a0emphasizes that the search for personal identity is universal. Entertainment Weekly<\/a> gave it an “A.” Thumbs-ups from Time Magazine<\/a>, Philadelphia Inquirer<\/a>, Seattle Magazine<\/a>, and NPR’s book reviews<\/a>.\u00a0More radio interviews on KUOW<\/a>\u00a0and Oregon Public Broadcasting<\/a>. Exciting!<\/p>\n

I’m in SF, on the last leg of my book tour. Jet lagged but happy! Here are the rest of my tour dates:<\/p>\n

Monday, Nov. 26, San Francisco –\u00a0<\/strong>Booksmith<\/a>, 7:00pm –\u00a01644 Haight Street<\/p>\n

Tuesday, Nov. 27, San Francisco – \u00a0<\/strong>Cartoon Art Museum<\/a>, 7:00pm –\u00a0655 Mission Street<\/p>\n

Thursday, Nov. 29, Seattle –\u00a0<\/strong>Elliott Bay Books,<\/a> 7:00pm –\u00a01521 Tenth Avenue<\/p>\n

Below: My agent had a bottle of champagne delivered to me after Marbles hit the NY Times bestseller list\u00a0(that night!! Thank you, Holly!).<\/p>\n
