Promises, Promises

I'm currently in the ever-wonderful Lawrence, KS, finishing up the last dregs of my book tour, and I swear to god I'll begin my promised multi-part "book tour diary" entries by the end of this weekend. I promise--really!

[And oh yeah--in the meantime, if it's playing anywhere near you, go see the excellent Planet B-Boy (film trailer above).]

NCAA Champs

Okay, okay, I've been totally silent lately and I apologize. I've been preparing a long, multi-entry overview of the past month: the rather strange, up-and-down days of the book tour. And that will begin very soon. Until then...

Three cheers to my alma mater for winning the basketball championship.
