I got my contributor copies of the Pacific NorthWest Reader today. The UPS truck pulled up to the driveway just as Dinah and I were setting off on our walk. We were outside and I was zipping up my sweatshirt. Dinah didn’t want anything to do with the UPS man and was able to wriggle her head out of her collar as I was holding on to it to make sure she didn’t run off, or at him. Collarless, she retreated about five feet and sat down next to my car and gave him a single bark. Silly girl.
We should be getting our copies in at the store soon. It looks great. And guess what-there’s a quote from my essay on the back. How neat is that? Carl Lennertz, the editor, send along some bright red stickers that read ‘Contains an essay by someone in this store.’ I can’t wait to put them on the store copies and display the books up front and force everyone to buy at least one.
