I will be in conversation with the wonderful author and podcaster Courtney Martin to celebrate the publication of my latest book, Why Fly. Pack your bags and celebrate with us for an hour of flight, both of fancy and of physics, that will transfix even the most nervous of flyers. Board at gate CLIO’S, Oakland’s popular gathering place and eccentric bookstore, which has a full bar, nooks and crannies made especially for chess games or gossip, and books arranged not by author or subject, but by chronology. Event is FREE: https://www.cliosbooks.com/

353 Grand Ave, Oakland, CA

So happy to be at the venerated Powell’s Books in Portland, Oregon on March 12th, 7 pm, where the lovely and talented author and illustrator Carson Ellis will be asking me probing questions about relationships, flight, and more. Come ask us some probing questions too! https://www.powells.com/events

Come to the famed Joe’s Pub in NYC to hear me tell a true story on stage, most likely of disaster and mayhem, for the Seriously Entertaining monthly series by the House of Speakeasy, and alongside other notable authors, chefs and ne’er do wells, 7 pm!

If you live in San Antonio, Texas, or nearby, I am sure you are going to this event, so come say hi to me as you peruse the talks and panels. I’ll post more information as it becomes available, but mark your calendars now. :)
