...Four copies of A Little Twist of Texas!!!!

One for me, signed and dedicated by Linda, one for Calissa, and two for me to ring.

I love the cover art. A big black motorcycle and a long, lonely road stretching out ahead. I am truly in awe of Linda for undertaking this trip, a trip in several dimensions, a journey of exploration of the great wide world and of herself, and of the many relationships that bind our world together.

Our paths crossed in Fort Worth, though I'd been reading her journal and riding along in her saddlebags, and when I flew off for San Francisco, I looked down at the wild and rugged terrain below me and imagined a tiny speck on a long loney road, an arrowhead of dust behind her.

There are mountains and songs and birds and beasts in this book, and though I read some of the early drafts, I shall read this book now that I have the whole package in my hands.

And get stuck into my own writing!

Hehehe... I'm looking forward to taking some notes on how to write good travel stories from both of you, since I also have a copy of Bookcrossing Through Middle Earth on its way to me from somewhere.

And thank you for helping orgainse this. I just sent an email about the details.

Any word on what's getting stuck into first?

That would be Squirty Bertie I take it? Or something completely different?

I know. Pete linked it above. Don't know how I missed it previously. Don't have an address at the moment but intend to get a copy when I do.

Oh! Are you the same person who was touring Australia not too long ago?

I *love* that bookstore icon. :)

Crikey, you're up early! I've been watching the parade of books found and released scrolling through the boxes on the left hand side of the screen.

Half five on a chilly Canberra morning here. Hope it's lovely and warm in Osaka. Sun's probably up, too.

o:) Early? What's this thing you speak of?

I hadn't been to bed yet when I did those releases. Have been running around with a box of books so I had no idea where they were eventually going to turn up.

Cloudy day but sun kinda peeked through. THink we hit about 27. Didn't actually venture farther than the balcony today, had to finish packing. Ugh.

Was wondering where you'd got to--I never picked up on your new ID ;-)

Yeah I did it quickly and have honestly been just as bad at keeping up, though I'm trying to remedy that.

Added you back again :)
