dearest k chronicles/(th)ink readers…

greetings and salutations!!! thanks to everybody who came out to all my booksigning/slideshows up and down the west coast…i got shut down at the canadian border (i’ll do a strip aboot it), but all the cities that went off were fabulous….especially san jose, which was a city i would always make fun of in the past… san jose had the largest crowd, and spent the most $$$, so s.j. wins…

a lot of good stuff is coming up, so come on out and say hello….
