Some kind folks have been asking me about my “book tour” for Fair Coin, which so far consists of as many readings and signings as I can arrange on the East Coast within reasonable reach of Philadelphia. I’m working on scheduling more where and when I can, within the constraints of distance, budget, and available vacation time from my day job. Check my Events page to see if I’ll be coming to a venue near you, and I always appreciate recommendations for and to other stores, events, conventions, and activities, including library, school, and Skype visits.

I’m especially pleased and honored to be participating in the annual Teen Author Festival in NYC, an epic week of author panels, readings, signings, and mayhem. I’ve long attended as a spectator, but this is the first year that I’m one of the authors, with my shiny new book! (I’ll also be a spectator.) Most notably, I’ll be in a group signing at Books of Wonder on Sunday, April 1 from 2:45 p.m. to 3:15 p.m., my first public signing in NYC. I hope you’ll drop by, and attend the other events in the Festival. I’ll likely be in the audience from Thursday on. Full schedule below and you can join the Facebook page for the latest information:

  1. Extra liquid may be necessary to make sure the texture
    stays the same. It can get old and very quickly when creating blog
    content that nobody seems to read. Register with online directories and ask your customers to post reviews.

  2. 7- Have they ever been disciplined by the state bar association. These Denver
    personal injury attorneys specialize in state highway laws.

    The first and foremost requirement for an online divorce is
    the first.

  3. Most often, people who reside alone opt for purchasing the supermarket meals in bulk and storing it in their refrigerator for future use.
    In fact thousands of people now have all of their meals delivered to
    their home because eating a strict, low calorie diet really can help
    you shed some weight, particularly if you can squeeze in a little
    bit of exercise as well. After placing these ingredients in the food
    processor.

  4. It’s awesome in support of me to have a site, which is good in support of my experience.
    thanks admin

  5. I do not know whether it’s just me or if everybody
    else encountering problems with your site.

    screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them as well?

    had this happen before. Thanks

  6. I see you don’t monetize ecmyers.net, don’t waste your traffic, you can earn extra
    cash every month with new monetization method. This is the best adsense alternative for any type of website (they approve all websites), for more info simply search in gooogle: murgrabia’s tools

  7. I was suggested this website through my cousin. I am not positive whether or not
    this submit is written by him as no one else understand such distinct approximately my problem.
    You are amazing! Thank you!

  8. naturally like your web site but you need to test
    the spelling on several of your posts. A number of them are
    rife with spelling problems and I find it very troublesome
    to tell the reality nevertheless I’ll certainly come again again.
