Crazy week ahead

[Rhys Bowen]

Starting Saturday is a week exactly the anthesis of the writer's solitary life:

Catch a plane at 6 a.m on Saturday. Three events that day, culminating with one of my royal tea parties at the Mystery Bookstore, LA.

Then drive to San Diego. Royal teaparty. Fly home.

Monday, fly to Denver.

Tuesday two early morning TV shows. Evening event.

Wednesday drive to Boulder, evening event.

Thurs fly to Salt Lake, evening event.

Friday fly to Portland, evening event.

Saturday fly home!

These things are tense because of all the airport security these days and because so many little things can go wrong. Planes no longer take off when they are supposed to. Airlines no longer care if the flight is canceled. So it's always nail biting time.

Off to pack. maybe I'll see some of you along the way?

Ah Rhys - escape to Alaska, those royal tea drinkers will never find you until the last week of Sept. when they will arrive in droves!

Rhys--

Would have loved to see you at Book'em but Denise Hamilton, Patricia Smiley, and I will be in Bakersfield that day for a library event. Bring your hat and your suncreen because it's plenty hot out here! Good luck with your tour.
