Remember to stop by at LA Book Fest

A final reminder that I will be at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books on the USC campus tomorrow and Sunday, in booth 860 (the CAPS booth). Stop by, say hi. I’ll have lots of books – plenty of copies of The Peanuts Collection (if you don’t have that), some It’s Only a Game, Schulz’s Youth, and a whole four copies of Bridge Mix (and that’s the one I cannot restock for Sunday if I sell out on Saturday). And if you ask nicely, I can show you copies of the upcoming Schulz gift books The Zipper on My Bible is Stuck and God’s Children (can’t sell them yet, but looking is free!)

(And I’ll have plenty of non-Schulz stuff as well… but this is the AAUGH Blog, I know what you want.)
