Thanks to Touchstone and Malaprop’s and you

I’ve launched my mini-book tour. Friday I spent the afternoon at Touchstone Gallery in Hendersonville, chatting with a steady stream of folks. Members of Women in Black dropped in after their weekly peace vigil at the old Henderson courthouse, and old friends and new readers came by as well.

Saturday evening about 75 folks came to the reading at Malaprop’s Bookstore and Café in Asheville and not only listened to my spiel but stayed to ask probing questions and discuss my effort.

Thanks to both venues and all of you for coming around to launch this work. I am excited to share this, the biggest research and writing project in my career, and I’m humbled by your support and kindness. Today, on to Charlotte!
