I’m Big In Lethbridge

For some reason, Feather Brain is popular in Lethbridge. I’m doing two events there next week, full days at two schools using Feather Brain for their One School One Book programs http://www.readtothem.org/, where everyone in the school reads the same book. The two schools (in Lethbridge) I’ve been to previously for this program loved the book, and I loved being there.

I’m also becoming known outside of Lethbridge. Well, a little outside. I’m booked for a school in Coaldale (to the east), and Brocket (a reserve to the west) later this spring.

Mwhahaha – Lethbridge today, world domination tomorrow. Okay, well, perhaps a small portion of southern Alberta?

Eric Orchard is doing the cover for the soon-to-be-renamed There’s a Witchdoctor In My Grandmother’s Bathroom (Orca, Fall 2010). He did Feather Brain, and I adore it. I begged for Eric again, and it’s finally organized. I’m so pleased.
