Memphis, and the Blog Tour Returns

I'm at Teen Reads today, talking about An Abundance of Katherines and writing. The very same web site has just reviewed Katherines. I like the review.

(Another review I liked, this one from Chicago's New City, can be found here.)

I'm blogging to you from Memphis, Tennessee, having just finished my first panel (which was great) with the brilliant E. Lockhart, Ally Carter, and Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. (Ms. Naylor writes the Alice books, which I read obsessively when I was a kid, so I was really geeked out and nervous around her, but she was quite nice. I also liked Ally a lot, and recommend her book, "I'd Tell You I Love You But Then I'd Have to Kill You," which is like Harry Potter only with spies.)

Tomorrow I'm on a panel with the same people, plus Alex Sanchez. You should come, provided you are in or near Memphis. This is a good book festival, and also there is excellent fried chicken.

I read the Alice books obsessively in grades 4-6, which was only 6-4 years ago. I think maybe someone is fudging the numbers a tad..

Memphis is about a 4 hour drive for me, and my brother AND my sister both live there. If my wife weren't 7 and 1/2 months pregnant, I'd come see you.
