PEOPLE, PLACES AND THINGS:  SEATTLE MYSTERY BOOKSHOP--NOVEMBER 4, 2006

 

Larry kicked off his fall tour for The Ragtime Kid with a signing November 4 at the Seattle Mystery Bookshop.  In spite of a dose of classic Seattle fall weather, windy and rainy, attendance was good and spirits were high.  The book had just come off the press the day before the signing, then Poisoned Pen Press did a top-speed drop-shipment to get copies to the bookstore just in time for the signing - so this was the first time Larry got to see the finished book, and he was very pleased with its appearance.  One customer bought seven copies of The Ragtime Kid, then declared her Christmas shopping to be over.  That's the spirit!
