It's a tour! It's a tour! It's an honest-to-Betsy book tour! <a href="http://www.orbitbooks.net/2013/09/12/announcing-mira-grants-parasite-tour/">You can find the full details here, along with links to some fun promo material</a>, but the real meat of things is the dates, times, and places. Specifically:<br /><br />Tuesday, October 29<br />7 PM: Borderlands, 866 Valencia Street, San Francisco, CA<br /><br />Wednesday, October 30<br />7 PM: Books Inc. Mountain View, 301 Castro Street, Mountain View, CA<br /><br />Thursday, October 31<br />7 PM: Mysterious Galaxy, 7051 Clairemont Mesa Boulevard, San Diego, CA<br /><br />Friday, November 1<br />7 PM: B&N <a href="http://www.livejournal.com/rsearch/?tags=%232280">#2280</a>, 401 NE Northgate Way <a href="http://www.livejournal.com/rsearch/?tags=%231100">#1100</a>, Seattle, WA<br /><br />Saturday, November 2<br />2 PM: B&N <a href="http://www.livejournal.com/rsearch/?tags=%232262">#2262</a>, 12000 SE 82nd Avenue, Portland, OR<br /><br />I'm going to go zoom zoom zoom, and then boom boom boom, and if you're in the room room room, you might meet your doom doom doom. I am <i>so excited</i>. I have never had an actual book tour before, and I'm gonna <i>wreck</i> it.<br /><br />Now, if you are not able to make it to any of the book tour stops, please remember that Borderlands Books a) takes pre-orders via both internet and phone, and b) will ship. So you can get a signed, personalized copy of <i>Parasite</i> of your very own, even if you're not in a position to risk life and limb by getting it from me directly. They make amazing holiday gifts, and can be used to either kill or house spiders, depending on where you put them.<br /><br />Book tour!
