Is there any creature on the earth happier or more focused than a Lab at dinnertime?
The book tour is in its last week. Bittersweet. I’ve loved the conversation, eager to get back to work. When I finish the grieving book, I have to figure out what I’m doing next and right now, I have no idea. My short story collection – “Dancing Dogs” is finished, and my first kid’s book “Meet The Dogs of Bedlam Farm” is out in April. The grieving book, “Going Home: Finding Peace When Animals Die” is coming out next year, don’t have a date yet.
The last two events of the “Rose In A Storm” book tour are these: Thursday (tomorrow) 7 p.m., Barnes & Noble, Framingham, Mass.
Saturday, November 6, 8 a.m., I’m speaking at the Concord, Mass. Festival of Authors, with writers Gish Jen and Brunonia Barry.
There will be a talk, Q&A, signing. In April, I’ve accepted an invitation to be the guest speaker at the Woodstock Writers Festival in Woodstock, N.Y. But the Concord appearance – at the famous Concord Inn – is the end of the “Rolling Rose” book tour. And a wild ride it has been.
