Great writeup! Sounds like an absolutely wonderful tour! It must be so amazing to see all those happy kids lined up to hear about your book. :)

Yes! I kept not believing they were really there for ME. :D

Hey cool! It was amazing attending your presentation at CSUF! I'm the gal in the orange shirt on the right in the CSUF lineup! Your story is amazingly relateable (I too, dealt with crazy insane braces through all of high school!)
I absolutely throughly adored and enjoyed your book! I've been reccomending it to any of my guests at work that would be interested. :D

Oh, thank you so much! I'm glad the presentation was enjoyable on your end; I really enjoyed talking to you guys too. :D

This post got me all misty. Wish I was around to catch some of these Bay Area events. Go comics, go kids, go Raina!

And go Jen! I'm glad we at least got to talk for a little bit at APE. :)

It was great seeing both of you, and I'm glad we were able to provide a venue for two out of the 80-something events you did that week. (And thanks for running a workshop at APE in your spare time!)

Congratulations on getting through all of that! Next time I think I've overbooked myself, I'm going to think about your California itinerary. I could barely read all of it in one sitting.

Ha! I was going to break it up into shorter posts, but then I figured the magnitude of the thing would be more obvious all at once.

And thanks again, for having us. <3
