The FLEX Book Tour Is Finalized! New Dates in San Diego And San Francisco!
Okay. This ridiculous book tour/vacation is now finalized, so many of you people on both West and East coasts can meet a Ferrett.
And what a strong ending! Two of the best science fiction bookstores, one I thought I’d never get to sign in! San Diego and San Francisco!
In any case, I should stress that this is a book vacation, not a book tour per se – in a book tour, the publisher pays to put you up in a hotel, whereas Gini and I are treating this like “Let’s drive up and down the West Coast and see friends and oh yeah, do some signings.” So if there’s anyone in the Seattle or San Diego area who would be willing to let us crash at their space for a couple of days (and be okay with us getting in late as we see other people), then please let me know. (We have Portland and San Francisco covered, thankfully.)
(Which also should answer your next question of “When are you coming to my town?” When you pay my plane fare and a hotel, I’ll cheerfully go anywhere. Alas, this is on my dime, and more for fun than profit, so I’m surprised I have this many dates.)
(And extra-special thanks to fellow writer and Angry Robot PR man Michael Underwood, who did most of the legwork for this tour. He is the official fairy godfather of Flex, and you should buy his books.)
