DEAD CONNECTION tour - Day 6 - July 21

[Alafair Burke]

It should be no suprise, but it's smokin' hot in Phoenix in July! Barbara Peters and her ever-awesome colleagues at The Poisoned Pen hosted a terrific event, as usual. Thanks especially to the Burke-regulars for the big turnout despite the nasty heat.

I was good and went to the gym today, so the rest of the weekend is for rest, which I will devote to playing with my four year old nephew, James Lee Burke IV, and catching up with the adventures of Harry Potter. Don't you dare tell me the ending!

Jeez, Alafair...I was skimming your page quickly, and the words "smokin' hot in Phoenix." But in my haste I saw "smokin' pot"!

Slowed me down right quick, to see just what you were up to in Arizona! And all you were doing was talkin' 'bout the weather. :-)
