This weekend I'm hanging out with all sorts of cool people

I'm doing two events this weekend. Friday I'm in Chicago for Brain Frame, reading from Rage of Poseidon (a few copies were shipped in for the event – currently available NOWHERE ELSE). With Anya Davidson, Keilor Roberts, Jeremy Tinder and more.

 Then I get swallowed by a giant mechanical bird and regurgitated in New York for the Brooklyn Book Festival. I'm on a panel on Sunday with Audrey Niffenegger and Frank Santoro talking about myth, fable and how to draw togas and talking birds.
