After hanging about reading posts and comments and tweets and email about arrivals for longer than I meant to (Daylight Savings Time–for weeks I can’t use light to judge time of day, and my old computer refuses to stay on the right time even when I reset it…it will flip over in April sometime), I didn’t have time to zip in and out of the city. Instead, I called bookstores and planned a two-day set of shelf-stock signings. Things did not go as planned right from the get-go, but I did manage to hit bookstores in three towns, though the one copy of Kings in one store was bought twenty minutes before I got there.
