Spring Broken

This is my Spring Break, and so far I haven't been offered a single body shot. With the lost hour I feel more like springing back to find someplace to hide. But there are places to go, people to bore, so spring forward I must.

Later today I should have some pictures and stories from my Saturday reading at Politics and Prose, which had a great crowd, killer questions, and a tense moment where I considered bending over in front of everyone to retrieve a fallen pencil.

I guest blogged at the witty/wise Book Lady's Blog today: There's More on Craigslist Than Ikea Furniture

The podcast from my visit to Paul Edwards' Christian talk program "God and Culture" is now online. In an interview in which Paul and I disagree agreeably about who wrote the Bible, he begins by asking, "What's a nice girl like you doing at Thomas Road Baptist Church?" I very nearly asked in response, "Who ever said I'm a nice girl?"

This week I head west to unleash my reign of UMs on Charlottesville and Harrisonburg, VA. Come get me!

Wednesday, March 17 I'm spinning a track or two on my friend Dominic's radio show on WTJU 91.1 at 2PM. You can listen online.

At 4PM I'll be reading at the UVA Bookstore with several other graduates of the UVA MFA program--Mary Beth Keane, Andrew Mulvania, and Mary Ann Samyn.

Thursday, March 18 Mary Beth and I will read at James Madison University's Warren Hall at 2PM.

Saturday--California, and upcoming stops at Book Passage in Corte Madera and Books, Inc. in Berkeley.

Gina, I've been following you on Twitter for months now and I had no idea! I just listened to the Paul Edwards interview and found it fascinating. Now I'm going to have to check out your book. And you have a charming laugh :)

Lisa! This thrills me. It sounds weird to say I enjoy you on Twitter, but I do, so I'm happy you're intrigued.
