“Can’t you organize mud wrestling in the Tidal Basin or something?”  It wasn’t a college co-ed who offered this question up.  No, no, it came from a slightly more respectable source.  My publisher.  Well, sort of.
Let me start at the beginning.  Recently, I’ve been receiving the same questions over and over.  In an effort to […]

The first phase of book tour is over.  Twenty locations, approximately 10,000 miles, a lot of Kerouac, Vonnegut, and Bellows, and a world of stale cokes and summer storm plagued airline flights later, I’m home.   I’m tired.  And I’m contemplative.
Deal with it.
According to my publisher, the next phase of book promotion is regular posts […]

Amazon Bookstore Cooperative
Minneapolis, MN
Minneapolis. Home of the world’s cleanest streets, biggest t-shirts, and craziest cats. And my brother. Hello built in tour guide. Or something like that. Upon arrival, he introduced me to his world. This would mean the sans humid 70’s of beautiful Uptown Minneapolis, and his bohemian cool friends, which I am taking […]

On this final week of book tour, I was afforded a rare, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.  Something people around the world people dream of experiencing. 
You know what it is.
The Running of the Elvises. 
Just think of it.  Over fifty people dressed up to look like Elvis, ranging from full on white, flared, studded costumes, to pairs of massive […]

My brother is graciously playing host while I’m in Minneapolis. I thought to repay him by letting him know that e.v.e.r.y.o.n.e. wants to be Sam’s sister. So I took it upon myself to create a one of a kind t-shirt and, well, I’m hoping he’ll speak to me again. Someday.

Minneapolis.  Sitting in Bob’s Java Hut sipping hot tea on a cold, rainy morning.  In comes the latest review.  I should have drank more tea first.  Well, at least Ms. Day and I can agree on one thing.  It’s all about me…but life is better when it isn’t.

Moffett Meanderings. En route to Minneapolis, Mn.
Benefits of air travel.

An airplane is the one place it is acceptable to eat Pringles and drink bad Chilean Chardonnay.
 In a word: incommunicado.
Finally had a moment to read my mail and answer some correspondences…from May.
Obtain reinforcement for my blissful happiness to not have children via the screaming 8 month […]

Tattered Cover
Denver, CO
There are bookstores. Then there is the Tattered Cover. Situated on Colfax Avenue in Denver, it occupies a former theater with lofty, high ceilings, and is composed of achingly tall bookshelves, velvety green carpeting, and a world of books unlike any I had ever seen. Walking in, I half expected to hear the […]

Barnes & Nobles of…
Colorado Springs, CO
Loveland, CO
Week 9.
Seven hours of traveling, 59 blackberry e-mails, and six voicemails later, I’ve realized there is an upside to traveling. You are incommunicado.
I wonder if my publisher would pay for a book event in Hong Kong.
With this positive perspective, Kerouac, the laptop, the favorite pen, and I took to […]
