Meanwhile, my kids (who will be coming on this tour with me) will be running around the store like loonies. Clay and Brooklyn will be playing hide and seek, knocking over displays. Lexi will be drawing in the books and asking me, "How do you spell this?" every minute and a half. Jackson will bring me a stack 249 books with the question, "Can I get these, Mom?" Savannah will be sitting there looking bored and complaining that I won't get her a cell phone of her own and Austin will sneak over to Starbucks, buy some coffee and then, hyped up on caffeine, act even weirder than he already does. Sounds like a fun time, no?
Which brings me to my question. I really, really don't want to sit in an empty store like a dork, so tell me where you live so my publisher can come up with a plan that includes cities of folks who know who I am and who would
Thank you!

It's exactly 20 miles south of Baltimore or 20 miles north of Washington DC. Any of those two cities or suburb areas would be great!!! I would so be there!
Hey Dawn..... how about you hook up with the really nice ladies at "Hearts at Home" and get a booth at their conferences! One in Grand Rapids MI (where I will be ;) ), one somewhere else (forget where) and a national one there in IL. They are a wonderful organization and have helped so many moms, just like you have! Check them out online.
Denver/Boulder. You must come...and then you'll never want to leave (evil cackle). ;)
I would totally love it if you came to Colorado Springs, but I can also join in with all the others who said Denver. I'd be willing to make the 1 hr. drive to see you!! Please, please, please come see us in Colorado.
Greetings from sunny Florida!! After your fun vacation here, you know you want to come back!!!! I live in a tiny little town outside of Daytona Beach. You should really really really PLEASE come to the Orlando area for your fans here in the sunshine state!!
There is no bookstore in my town but if you go to Omaha, NE I would go there!
We are moving from CA to VA this summer. I would so come to a book signing of yours. We are moving to Stafford Virginia, put it on your tour and I (and everyone I can get to come with me) will be there:0)
Come to Tacoma, or Puyallup Washington and I will definitely be there!!! I can't wait to purchase your book.
okay, you've got requests from the Nasville, TN-area and Birmingham, AL, so please add HUNTSVILLE, ALABAMA to the list (hey, we're right between Nashville and Birmingham, so it's easy-peasy). Kids love the Space and Rocket center and the Botanical Gardens. And everyone needs to spend some time in Alabama during August ;-)
Come to Houston (up North please) :)
Temecula, CA! There is a great, big B&N near the mall that would be PERFECT. Please don't make me beg. I will if I have to, though.
Don't forget to add Melbourne, FL (or at least Orlando, FL)!!! I'll be there! Barb
Moving from California to Virginia this summer. Would love to have you come to Stafford. I promise to bring everyone I know:0)
Crystal Lake, IL. I will totally make the 45min drive to Chicago!
Hope to see you soon. I will even bring the kids yummies from Trader Joe's
Felicia
Hey Dawn,
Please, please, please, come to San Antonio, Texas. Austin, Texas is just a short 45 minute drive north of SA but, I'd love to meet you and your kids here in the "Alamo City". I'll bring my 5 kids who are almost identical in age (13, 11, 9, 6, 5)and they can all run around the bookstore together. WooHoo... let's get us all kicked out! Just tell me what day, time and location and I'm there!!
Thanks for continuing to share your wonderful sense of humor!
~Lisa K.
San Antonio, Texas
Honolulu, Hawaii! Even if no one shows up but me, it would be a fun trip for you!
Long Beach, California!
I'm in the Indianapolis area, too. But I would travel to make it to one of your book signings. I have family in Lombard,IL, so perhaps I could catch you in one of those suburbs nearby. Please post a book tour listing or tell us where we can find one on-line. Best of luck to you, in bringing your 6-pack along.
Evansville, Indiana!
Donnellson, Iowa!! Well, except we don't have a bookstore here.....closest would be Ft. Madison or Burlington, but Iowa City is only 60 miles north and I would definately travel to come to your book signing! Hopefully not dragging my 9, 7 & 4 yr olds along! Oh, and contrary to what "Steve" posted, you won't really need your passport!! ha
Congrats! and keep up the great work!
If you visit Worcester, Massachusetts I,along with every females I know will attend with bells on!!!!!
Hope to see you in New England!!!
Please come to the Atlanta,
GA area (Gainesville, Cumming, Alpharetta, Roswell). I will bring a gang of friends with me.
We'd love to welcome you to Kansas City, MO!
Congrats on your book & tour!
Come to PA!!! Specifically, the suburbs of Philadelphia. I saw a Media, PA mentioned above, that sounds good! Or there's a Borders in the Concordville area, that's even closer to me.
It would be SO wonderful to meet you in person and to be able to see the "six pack" that inspired all of this.
Don't worry -- no matter where you go you certainly won't be lonely!!!
Be sure to keep us posted on this!!
Donna in PA :)
Please come to San Diego!
I live in North San Diego County (we sent a postcard from Carlsbad) but would drive anywhere in San Diego or even up in the Los Angeles area. Hope to see you on your book tour!
Okemos, Michigan! right outside of lansing! please come! i will visit you!
Here's another vote for the San Francisco Bay Area! (San Jose, in particular, but I'll drive to see you!)
Colorado Springs, CO!! Or even Denver!
Chattanooga, Tennessee!!!
I'm also in the Houston area - but on the south side of town in the Clear Lake/Bay Area. We'd love to have you come!!!
Chicago here too...but southwest of the city. Actually, I suspect my friends and I will find you anywhere in this area. Truly Dawn, you can't ignore your home town LOL!
I didn't flip through all the comments, but just thought I'd put a plug in for beautiful Boise, Idaho. If you're going to the northwest, we're sorta on the way. I would gladly fill a store with book buyers, so you wouldn't be twiddling your thumbs!
Dallas, TX. I'd love to meet you!
St. Louis, MO - We're not even that far from you!
St. Louis!
AUSTIN, TX!!! here's an idea...you should include all the cities that your children are named after. what fun would that be for the kiddos and it would go along well w/ your book promotion!!
Tulsa, Oklahoma!
Come and visit Roanoke, Virginia. It's beautiful out this way!
Western Massachusetts, please! I saw a comment from someone in Belchertown and they mentioned the Holyoke or Hadley Barnes and Nobles...but how about some smaller local bookstore north of there...like the Greenfield, MA area? But if not Hadley or Holyoke work, too! Can I bring my 2 high energy boys to the signing? They can run around with your kids and you won't have to feel like yours are the only kids being crazy :)!
I live in Port Huron, MI. We have a Barnes & Nobles in neighboring Fort Gratiot, MI. Added bonus, we are a border city with Sarnia Canada, so you can do a bit of international travel, too, if you like!
I've got three locations for you to choose.
Richmond VA, Chapel Hill, NC or Charlotte NC.
Just don't do them back to back.
You've got a few requests to come to Australia - surely that's enough? I'm in Brisbane...
Please come to FRESNO, California!
Love Ya!
Nicole
Count me in for the Denver metro area.
You can pick, since I could do either... Philadelphia or Atlantic City. (AC is closer...hint hint)
Wow, I don't think you will ever get to this end of your comment list but I would definitely stand in line to get an autographed copy of your book.
Please come to Ontario California
****PUYALLUP, WA*****
OR
****TACOMA, WA*****
OR, I would even drive to Seattle, WA
In your own backyard Dawn! I'm in Palatine, Illinois!
SPOKANE, WA PLEASE! i would totally come see you! I have lots of people that i would drag along with me. That didn't sound nice, I wouldn't have to drag them, they would want to come on their own, no dragging involved...except for my 5 year old, who would love to help your children destroy a bookstore. You have to go to Aunties Bookstore though, your kids would actually love it there. It's a great place for kids.
Vancouver WA which is Portland OR's next door neighbor so either would work for me!
Westerville, Ohio. We are so very close to the CMH Columbus airport. But, wah! Why don't I see a lot of OHIO shout outs! Hey, Buckeyes, where are you????
I'm in Fort Hood, TX. About an hour north of Austin, but I could make it to Dallas, San Antonio and Houston as well!
I would love to meet you and your kiddos! Put in a request for Oklahoma... I don't know if you have many fans here but I'll definatly be there!!!!
A vote for San Jose, CA! We have a great Barnes and Noble with the largest children's section of any in the area, a Starbucks...and of course I will be there! LOL And some of the best shopping in the Bay Area is right there as well...including a great spa and yummy libations!
I, too, would LOVE if you came to the Indianapolis area! I live just outside of there and would drive anywhere in the city to see you!
Salt Lake City, Utah. I saw on your map of letters you've received that you have some fans in Utah. It would be fun to see you and your crazy family :)
Please come to Austin Texas!!! I know lots of people who would go see you, me included!
Can you come to Mentor, Ohio or there abouts? I'd definitely come see you then. Theres a Borders near the mall, and a book store called Half Price Books (which is where I shop for books) thats off of Hiesly Road.
Yeah that helps, right?
Hope to see you. And if you go to Cleveland or Akron, I'm afraid I won't go, too many cars, freaks me out.
Purdy please - come to Columbus Ohio?
San Diego, CA....
I am in a mom's group of 500+ and a lot of us read your blog. Come here.. pleeeeeeease???
While I realize you have a long list of devoted fans and locations to go, everyone can use an excuse to head to Vegas, right? While I must admit that August is not a fabulous time to head to the desert, I can promise you'll have 6 people there, though my 5 may join up with your kiddo's and we'll have one heck of a party going on.
Sacramento, CA..........Please!
Columbus, Ohio!!! Then those in Cincy and Cleveland could come down too...it's right in the middle. Come!
Come to San Diego, CA! There's a mom of 8 here that I know and a mom of 6, and I'm gonna be trying to get them to get your book, too. For, you know, all the spare time they have.
Canberra Australia??? Only kidding I know it is only for US residents... But if your ever in the area :)
Please come to Tampa, FL! I'll get my whole mom's group to come - you are invited to our mom's night out afterwards! WE"LL GET YOU A SITTER!

Utah!! I don't expect you to come to the small nothing town I live in, but I'll travel the 3 hours it will take to get to Salt Lake if you go there!
Portland Oregon!!
I would rally all my friends to come and see you!!
St. Louis, Missouri
DALLAS OR FORT WORTH. I will gladly drive to Fort Worth for your book signing. Soooo exciting!!
Beaumont Texas..please!!! No one ever comes to this place! We have a bookstore..and i'll bring tons of people..promise!!! I'll even bring kids to help your kids ransack the place :P
Wherever you go you will be mobbed. Trust me, people love you. So come to Provo/Orem, Utah and prepare to be adored.
Chicago loop, any weekday, since the majority of my week is spent downtown at work. Plus I can walk to whatever bookstore chosen and earn WW pts!
OH please please please come to Salt Lake City, UT!!!! Since this is the home of the mormons and alot of people ask you if you are one you can hang with your "peeps" while you are here!
TST
Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base, Oceanside, CA (San Diego Area)
Your publisher should really consider doing a military base tour! We have book signings fairly regularly and they are always crazy packed. Plus, if ever there was a dense population of SAHM's with multiple kids that could relate to and use some of your humor, it is on a military base.
Phoenix, Arizona!!!
Come to Albany, NY. The Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza hosts many authors for book signings. There are many cool, unique stores in Stuyvesant Plaza, including one that carries Red Thread Confections, which is based in nearby Delmar. Albany has lots of fun family things to do in the summer and fall and it's a short drive to Saratoga Springs and Lake George. I can't wait for your book to come out. I know what I'm giving my sisters and my son's preschool teachers for Christmas. They'll laugh as much as I do when I read your blog. My son is the dark haired version of Clayton, although he got a black eye by accidentally crashing head on into his friend the week before Jackson got a black eye. If you come to Albany, I'll come to your book signing with my 4 year old son wearing a Tazmanian devil shirt and a smile to melt your heart. I'll be the proud single mom with graying hair. I'm not dyeing it. After an 11 month wait for his adoption, I've earned every one.
Peg
You simply MUST come to Los Angeles, preferably the northern part - San Fernando Valley, Santa Clarita Valley, Glendale, Pasadena. I'd even drive to Santa Monica, Hollywood, Westwood... Your six kids plus my four will tear the place down LOL! After the signing, y'all can come over for BBQ and swimming - yay!!!
Please add my vote to Vroman's Bookstore in Pasadena, CA ... although I'll meet you anywhere near Los Angeles!
Trying again...for some reason I couldn't sign in the first time. Joining those who've already said Seattle! PLEASE come to Seattle!!!!!!!!!
Suppose it's out of the question to come to Iceland ;) But will order your book from Amazon, next time I buy something from the States.
Uk Please, I trust it's a round the world tour - it should be!!! hey I could book a cruise & meet you on there!
mini uk
Denver or Colorado Springs, Colorado would work for me! I am in the mountains but either is a trip I would gladly make to get your signed book!
Memphis, TN--You could visit Graceland!! ;-)
Come to Norway! *Haha*
Atlanta GA!!!!
South Korea!! Believe it or not, you have many readers here. We'd be thrilled if you showed up.
By the way, I'm talking about the military base in Seoul. Not outside Korea. Hee!
Come to visit Annapolis, Maryland! You could get some of the Washington, DC crowd, too!
Like Melanie a couple of hundred posts above, I think you should come to Sydney, Australia!!!! That would be fantastic! =)
Horseheads Ny!!! There's a Barnes Noble around the area! :))
COME TO AUSTRALIA!! Any city/Outback town will do I'll fly! OTOH my daughter will be in North Carolina in August (from June 3rd through to end August) any chance she can hook up with you there somewhere and buy a book and get you to sign it? Go here www.campchestnutridge.org click on "About Us" then "Our team" and scroll down til you get to Aussie Sarah that's her!
I'll keep an eye out for where you'll be
Come to Sterling Heights, MI - northern suburb of Detroit. I would come and say hello and get your book.
Well, I live in the Boston area, but in late August I'll be on the Outer Banks of NC (which is a lovely place to visit, and they do have bookstores there!!).
Please come to College Station, Texas. But if that isn't mainstream enough, Austin is close too! I'd be willing to drive and hour and a half to get your book!
Buffalo, NY!!!
Cary, NC - right on the edge of Raleigh. There are tons of moms here and we would love to have you come! I can tell my MOMS Club, MOPS Clubs etc.! :)
I am in Wichita, KS right now but hopefully I will be in Northwest Arkansas by the time the tour comes around... but I will se you in either place.
Macon, GA!!!! Or even better, Warner Robins, GA!!!!
I'll even sweeten the pot...I have an 11-year-old boy and a 9-year-old girl and we'll entertain your kids for you if you come down our way! :)
Williamsport, PA.....perfect timing at the end of August to take in the Little League World Series!
Oh, please, please, please...come ANYWHERE in Connecticut! Heck, the state is small enough it'd only take me an hour, tops, to get anywhere you'd be! Although, centrally located near New Haven would be nice (start scouting Yale for Clay???)...
~Laura
Dayton, Ohio. I'll be there in line for your book!
Richmond, VA! I saw someone else who said Richmond too! Please come! There are lots of readers here!
Sheboygan WI. We have a nice city here...anyone else from this area?
My daughter and I could "clown" at your event.
If you get close to where I live in Southern Indiana, I promise to come. I'll even bring my kids so yours will have a distraction for a little while!! ;)
Anita in Indiana
Please come to Texas, but specifically, The Woodlands, Texas. I saw a few others from Houston, that is not far from here. So I guess Houston would be ok too. I think you would be worth the drive. I can't wait until your book comes out!
Dawn if you came to Staten Island New York the Barnes & Noble would be packed we love you here.. You are our inspiration... Come this way PLease!
Dawn,
Okay, you're never, never, never coming to where I live, but would love to see you in Victor, NY. We're a great little town outside of Rochester that has an awesome mall (right across from Borders) and a race track/casino ten minutes away so you could really have some fun there (not that the kids could go there unless they sit on the track side watching the horses!!)
Anyway, can't wait to see your schedule of what cities you actually will be in!!
Melissa K
Oooooooo!!!! I have never left a comment before, but I just had to for this post. PLEASE OH PLEASE come to Charleston, SC! Just think.....you could enjoy a little sun and surf while you're here!
Come to Des Moines, Iowa. We would love to have you!
Just north of Atlanta Georgia.
*****BALTIMORE, MARYLAND!********
I'd like to meet you and your kids!
Woooooooooooooooooooooo...
Dallas Texas - speicifically he lancaster/DeSoto.Cedar Hill Area. Cedar hill has a very nice and large Barnes and noble!!

Come to Orlando, Florida (Oviedo actually!) You know everyone loves to come to Florida, and your kids would love SeaWorld or Disney inbetween your booksignings and speeches!
Borders in Novi, Michigan, please!
Make that your overnight stop because there's a mall nearby, a glow-in-the-dark putt putt place, Chuck E. Cheese, movie theater, etc. There is something to amuse your entire crew.
My 8 year old really loves all of Clay's "stunts," and she'd LOVE to meet her source of amusement! Congrats on the tour.
Portsmouth, New Hampshire please!
Wausau, Wisconsin . . . .
I see the top post also from Wausau, so now there are at least two . . . I didn't read the other 246 comments to see if anyone else is also from this area!!
Lori
Hey Dawn...I live in western MA and believe me when I say almost nothing exciting happens around here. If you come this way I will rally the troops and get as many people as I can to go see you!
Dawn,
I absolutely LOVE your blog. I was one of the many who came to your blog after reading the Pokemon card fiasco on eBay. I am officially addicted. If you could be so kind as to make your way to Virginia Beach, VA, there is the Lynnhaven Mall that has both a Barnes and Noble and a Waldenbooks. I'd be there in a heartbeat if I knew you were going to be there. Please ask your book tour coordinator to consider it. Thanks!
I'm in West Virginia, but since there is not an actual "bookstore" for miles and miles, maybe you can just come to my local WalMart?? :)
Boston or Cambridge, MA!!!!!
Oklahoma City - Please.
Asheboro, North Carolina!! Come on down. We have a Books a Million in a mall here and I would love to see you there!!
Raleigh, North Carolina! I'd love you meet you and bring my triplets!!!

Pennsylvania:
South Central PA, Harrisburg area!!
Chris (from PA)
We are in Grafton, WI but would drive anywhere in the Milwaukee area to see you & buy your book! I promise I will bring LOTS of friends!!!
Hi Dawn, I bet you are not reading All these comments!? Holy Cow! Well I live in Muskegon Michigan and you can come this way but it sounds like everyone is bringing their kids with them so, As much as I want my book signed I think I will just forge your signature! Kidding! Kristine in Michigan.
Greenville, South Carolina!
King Of Prussia/Valley Forge, PA
I'd go anywhere in the Philadelphia area to get my book signed! Good luck.
Anaheim, California.
Your kids could hit disneyland.
Wichita, Kansas! I would love to meet you and get your autograph and I'm already planning on pre-ordering your book from Amazon!
Make a stop in Pittsburgh, please!!! You have to try a Primanti Brothers sandwich -- Beef, fries, coleslaw, all piled high! Delicious! Also try our pierogies! Nothing like the frozen ones at the grocery store! Looking forward to meeting you!
Tallahassee, FLORIDA, please!!!!
Dawn, Congratulations!!! I am very excited for you and all you've accomplished. I live in Charlotte, NC and would love to have an autographed copy of your book. I am on the Amazon email list just waiting on your book to become available!!
Dawn, come to Milwaukee Wi. you can drop the kids off at the zoo, their native habitat, and then sign in peace and quite. :) Jennifer in Milwaukee
We're in Virginia Beach, VA...
I've gotta get over to Barnes & Noble soon...must feed the addiction!
Come to Metro Detroit!!! I'll be there!
-Lori
I live near East Lansing, Michigan. But if you can make it to the Detroit area, I would be willing to drive down there to see you.
Melynda
The Woodlands, north side of Houston :)
Flower Mound or Grapevine TX. We'd love to see you here!
Kansas City! I read every day, but this is the first time I've posted. I love to read your blog, and just so you know I do not have children. You are just very entertaining. I can't wait for your book.
Well, we don't actually have a book store in our town, but the nearest cities are Pensacola or Destin. There are beautiful beaches to let your kids run around before and after the signing!!! I would come in a heartbeat, you make me laugh daily!!! Regardless of if you come here, I can't wait to buy your book!
Come to Pittsburgh, PA!!!
Northern Virginia, pls, suburbs of DC.
Come to Charlotte, NC!!!!!
Please come to (or close to) Savannah, GA!
Washington DC. Please come. (My brother lives in Budapest, Hungary, but I guess, he'll just have to do with me getting his copy signed.)
St. Louis (area) MO, please come!! Keep up the good work, you're awesome and so funny!
Please come to Albany, NY. I have been reading your blog since last summer and you have helpded me laugh at my kids and get out the camera instead of screaming (as much).
Minnesota! Minneapolis...better yet, Minnetonka...best of all, the Borders at Ridgedale Mall in Minnetonka. We can have dinner at Chammps next door. :o)
HOUSTON, TEXAS
I have an idea:
Have one of your kids sneak your new book in the shopping cart. Then, to teach your kids a lesson, put the book up for sale on a popular online auction site. This could make you famous!!!
I know you will do well in the book tour. It will be a real hoot for everyone.
LOL!!! when I read this Tuesday morning you had 247 comments!!! Come to Borders in Highland, IN. Thats the closes to my town. I can't wait to meet you and buy your book.
I will vote for Oklahoma City.
C'mon down to Charlotte, NC!!! I can't wait to get my hands on that book!!!
Indiana! I am south of Indianapolis but you must stop in your neighboring state and grace us with your presence. I would love to meet the famous Dawn and 6 pack!
You should come to scenic *insert massive sarcasm here* Champaign-Urbana Illinois.
Boston! Or better yet, just a bit north of there. Love Guideposts, love your blog, how can your book not be great? :)
We don't have any bookstores here in Rome, NY - I know, it's actually depressing! But there are a couple in the Utica/New Hartford area if you are interested!
Northern NJ...Morris County and I'll bring some friends!!
Fairview Heights, Illinois would be perfect! I'll bring my four girls - my 9 year old can whine with Savannah about the cell phone issue and my 11 year old will lead the way to Starbucks! St. Louis would work for me as well! I can't wait for your book to come out!
I live in Gainesville, VA, but we don't have any bookstores :(, so the best place would be MANASSAS, VA. I would love to meet you and have you sign my book!
Okay I didn't see any for the Central Texas area, but if you could go to Waco, (the closest) Austin or even Dallas I could probably make it. Pleeeeeeze!!!!!!! Can't wait for it to come out.
Come to Woodbridge, Virginia...PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's another vote for Fort Collins, CO (or Denver, or Longmont, or someplace in northern Colorado.) :)
I saw one Omaha, NE, but would like to vote for it again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and how ever many more times it takes for you to come to Omaha. Lincoln would be okay, too, as they are only about an hour apart, and since I live in Douglas, either one is an easy drive for me.
I am in the Detroit Metro area. I would love to come to your book signing! Your blog brightens my day!
Baton Rouge, Louisiana!!!
We will feed you well here! =P
Summer
Please Please Please come to OVERLAND PARK, KS!!!!!! I will rally people!!
WOW! This is going to be one heck of a book tour! All I can say is - come to SC! The beaches are great in August! Your kids can hang out by the pool, you can hang out in air conditioned comfort, surrounded by adoring fans. I can meet you (and get a signed book). Everybody wins!
NJ- got to do somewhere in central NJ. Ocean Township would be great. But hey anywhere in the middle would be great. NYC is to far and to crowded so try for someplace like Ocean, Brick, Freehold. That would be great.
Thanks!
Andrea
How about the big T-Town. Toledo, OH here and I am sure my 3 year old would help in destroying the book store. We have a Barnes & Nobles, and a Borders on Monroe Street. :) Barnes & Nobles would be safest as you don't want the kids to wonder out into the great world of the mall.
Scranton, PA please
I cannot wait to read your book!! Please come visit us in St. Charles, which is 30 miles west of St. Louis, MO.
Falls Church, Va.
Please, please, please come to Overland Park,KS!!!! We have multiple Border's and Barnes & Nobles in the area that I can certainly make it to. I could even do something on the Missouri side since we are a suburb of Kansas City!!
I hope your tour makes it my way!!
Port St Lucie, FL please come!
Knoxville, TN
There are loads of mom's groups here who would love your book and buy it up!
Please please come to Pittsburgh, PA!
Westchester County, in New York...in fact I don't live too far from the Guideposts office in Carmel, NY.
I've seen a few votes for Oklahoma City, so I'll add my pleas as well. Our zoo was on the 10 Best Family Friendly Zoos List - and we'd love to meet you!
Albuquerque, NM! And I highly doubt you will be sitting anywhere alone looking like a dork. Look how many comments you've already had just to the is post. We all want to meet the lovely Dawn Meehan!
Philadelphia, PA! I would be sure to come see you, and I know a bunch of other people who would too!
I live in the hinterlands of northern New Hampshire, and I'll happily travel to see you if you come to NH!!
:-) CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
ATLANTA - specifically the Northside in Roswell (zip 30076). That would make my day!
I'm in the western Chicago suburb of Geneva IL but irregardless, I have a (proposition) strike that - make it an offer - for you. To spare you any potential discomfort of hauntingly empty bookstores (although I very much doubt that) I would be willing (for a generous renumeration to be negotiated) to travel along with you on your tour and perform as your 'broupie' (that's book groupie for you newb's). Yes, I would cheer and fawn and wave book and pen at you, for the right price I would even shed a hysterical fanatical tear or two. Anything to make you feel like an adored author. Oh wait, you already ARE. Hmmm, lucky gal!
Anywhere near Cleveland, OH!
Thanks!
Oh, Oh!!! Come to the King of Prussia, PA Borders....while not in the Mall of America it is the second largest mall in america :) Also, about 25 miles outside of Philadelphia. What more could you ask for!
Minneapolis, please!!!
I live in Wisconsin Rapids, WI. It's about 15 miles off of the geographical center of the state. So if you can only do ONE date in Wisconsin, what better place than the very heart of the state! I see that you've gotten invites from Wausau, and Appleton, which are both between an hour and 90 minutes away... they can SURELY make the trip to see you! Ok, I realize that those two places have a FAR better chance of seeing you than I do, so I'll drive there, but it would sure be cool to have a big celebrity come to Rapids! I mean, Patrick Swayze came here to have his knee operated on a couple years ago, but we didn't hear about that until he was already back on the plane leaving the airport. It'd be nice to have a REAL celebrity come and actually TALK to us!
You are an incredible inspiration to me, Dawn. Your faith and humorous outlook when your kids are being turds truly inspires me to try not to kill mine when he's acting like that... most days it works.
Jacksonville, FL wants you! But we want you on the beaches, not in downtown. ;)
