REMINDER: Big-ass party tomorrow in San Francisco!

People of Earth, consider this your final warning: The Traveling Circus and Snake-Handling Show will be descending on Borderlands Books tomorrow, from six to nine in the evening. There will be cupcakes from Cups and Cakes Bakery, including the famous (or infamous) Mad Tea Party cupcakes originally conceived for the Emilie Autumn concert. (Chai cake, ginger buttercream, and strawberry jam.) We will endeavor not to eat them all before you get there, but it's gonna be hard.

There will be no actual snakes.

This iteration of the Circus includes Jeff and Maya Bohnhoff, who have never joined us for this particular madness, and are going to go a long way toward rocking the proverbial house. We'll have a raffle, a Q&A period, book signings, and all the random cheering you can stomach. There may even be some random dancing. Do you hear me? RANDOM DANCING!!!!

Come help us celebrate the release of Late Eclipses, and my first appearance on the New York Times bestseller list. If you can't attend, remember that you can order signed and inscribed copies of any of my books from Borderlands, and they'll be happy to hook you up.

Hope to see you there!

Missing a Borderlands party, received an email from the possible Seattle job that "the talents and experience you offer do not match our needs for this year," and then found out that there's a possible Bay Area opening for me to apply for. This economy has me whirling. Who knows where I'll end up! My Toby and I will be there, when the whirlwind stops (ok, slows...ok slows slightly), with 2 Toby books (and 3 anthologies and counting) to wear your little fingers out with signatures!

Those of you in "maybe I could make it, but it'd be a bitch" range...It's WORTH IT!

But would you bring a small person? That does reasonably well in crowds and noise? And by small, I mean under 2.

There will be music, and dancing... often children. On a good day, my neice would have loved it, when she was 2. On a bad day, I'd have skipped it. It's a bookstore, coffee shop, and a party all rolled into one. You know your small person best.

You've given me just the answer I need. We'll see whether we're having a good day or a bad day tonight. But I'd like to go and I actually think he'd enjoy the music and dancing once he got comfortable.

Thanks.

I've brought my daughter a few times. She's NOT good with crowds or noise, but she does ok. Sometimes we've taken a break to walk outside.
