Enthusiastic and long review of the post-apocalyptic trilogy I wrote with my friend, Nancy Butcher. This series never got a whole lof of play, but there are some dedicated fans out there, all the same...

Nutty comment on the Colbert Nation official site
Somebody is suggesting Colbert have me on the Colbert Report, as I am "the biggest liberal who could ever be spawned in this good country. She claims that she loves America but we all know she is lying."
So evidently some conservative nutter has read The American Story and -- who knows? didn't like the story about Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs? Thought I was "soft" on Native Americans?
Why am I so tickled?

Barre (Vermont) Read Steal Away
This was back in early May, but I forgot to post this picture of the banner hanging from the public library. I spent two days in Barre middle schools and being feted. Like I always say, being feted is much nicer than being fetid. It was a little weird to discuss a book I wrote fifteen years ago -- the kids I was talking to were more familiar with it than I was. I meant to reread it before I went, but for some reason I didn't. And I couldn't remember many of the details. I said something about one of the characters, and the kids in the classroom all said, "Huh? No she didn't!" Ooops.

Tom Brokaw is in town for Skidmore's graduation -- I think he was a speaker. My friend Emma does the photos. Bada boom, bada bing, and he has an autographed copy of the book in his hands.
