Novella ~ what a treat it was to have you at the store this last weekend, and by “have you” I DO mean your book-signing (and catching up with friends from long-ago). I’m truly sorry we didn’t get to spend more time together, as I’m sure we’d have many “slt” stories to share….. be that as it may, you were wonderful, and we hope to see you again. Sooner, as opposed to later. Thanks, again…. M.A. (in a scary little town) @ Sage

Hi Novella – I attended your appearance at Omnivore & there was slight mention of your radio broadcast that had just happened, some folks had listened. What radio station was it, I’d like to try and listen to the podcast? Thanks in advance, love what your doing!! Your funny, easy to follow.

Hi Novella, OMG it was so crowded and hot at 18 Reasons on Saturday that I left and went to see “Home Grown” at the roxie. You may already know about these people, but if not, check out their website: http://www.pathtofreedom.com/
It was a really interesting, inspiring and a little funky movie. Hope you had fun reading and sweating in that tiny room! It was a beautiful night in the city.

Your book was a slow read because I didn’t want it to end. November 21 in Sacramento is on my calendar – in ink.
