Alyssa gets her cowgirl on...

 
Splintered and I are hitting the Texas Tour Circuit this Friday!
 
My heroine Alyssa and her skater-boy Jeb are actually already accustomed to Texas things. They're from a fictional Texas town named after Alice Liddell (whose middle name happened to be Pleasance). But rodeos and bowls of piping hot chili are all foreign concepts to the winged and wild Morpheus. Maybe Alyssa will lend him her hat to make him feel at home. It's not exactly her style anyway. ;)
 
I'm posting my event schedule below in hopes any of you living in or visiting the Lone Star State can come by and say "Howdy". I'd love to meet you and chat about reading and writing!

    1. Wow, Barbara! I'm so thrilled to hear that! And it's amazing to know the book appeals to all different ages. Also, so great to meet a fellow Grimms/Carroll/Fairy tale fan!
