I received this email from Megan Whalen Turner today:

Can you post this itinerary for me?

I am going to be in Washington DC until the 30th of July.  Then I am 
driving up the North East Coast with the family.  I'll be in Boston on August 
3 and 4.  Is there anybody who would like to meet at a convenient Starbucks or 
bookstore?

I will be at the OELMA conference in October and I am hoping that you 
can tell them where the OELMA conference will be, because I can't 
remember.  Dayton? Cincinnati?

I will also be in Toronto, Ontario in October at a conference at UT.  
There should be two or three public signings there, but I'm pretty sure 
there are  also Starbucks in Canada.

And finally, I hope to meet emerald at the starbucks across from the 
British Museum sometime during the week between Christmas and 
New Year's this year.   Emerald, be there or be square.

Anyone who would like to get a book signed or would just like to 
provide me with a face to go with your name on lj, please e-mail to 
meganwhalenturnerATharpercollins.com
or to my private address if you have it, and we can try to set 
something up.

best,
Megan

I can hear all of you going, "Squee."  Yes, I can.  

The OELMA conference is in Dayton, btw, and is around Oct. 17.  peggy_2and I are planning on going to the book signing there.  For those of you who are shy, you can read about the Cincy visit and the N. California one and see how happy those folks were that they went.

If you go, you HAVE to post to Sounis about it or angry Sounisians will seek you out and lift you by the hair and threaten you with all sorts of unmentionable awful things.  Photos are welcome, too.

So, there you go.  A plethora of signings, road trips, boatpools, whatever, there for the taking.
