I returned to a book signing at Barnes & Noble, as well as our local bookstore, Frugal Frigate. Still struggling with the last 15 words for my latest book, but my agent is pitching a book to Peachtree this week. School is almost over and my eyes are worn out from reading so many papers. This summer will be recovery, reading some classics and some y.a., and letting my old brain rest for a little. It will also involve looking at my sister's book about our retreat, remembering conversations at the dinner table - thanks for making us laugh so hard, John, reliving the wonderful taste of Mark's fresh salmon and Betsy's garlic potatoes, relishing the secret passageway to the magnificent works of art, smiling at the height difference between Tall Dave and Tall Carmen, quiet talks with Edie, wonderful advice from Christy about playing with art, getting lost with Stephanie on the way to Vasa, and reading stories with my fellow potatoes. I will also remember the symphony to beat all symphonies, and Lauren so bravely reading her story on that giant stage. You all are so talented. It is an honor to be a part of this group. When can we do this again??
