So, I did my very first author visit in a school this week, with a couple of classes that are doing my book, River of Crows, as a novel study. It was an evening event and I was the special mystery guest for a live recording of their class podcast (they hadn't been told that I would be there). Check out this segment, in which a bunch of sock puppets discuss my book. 😆

How about total foot traffic to City Hall? Has that declined too? Attendance in the Council and committee galleries?
I, for one, haven't even tried going to City Hall because I'm sure my bike tools will be classified as "dangerous". What am I going to do? Leave my "dangerous" equipment on my bike where it can be stolen?
