My Adventures in ... San Francisco 2010
I just got back from the San Francisco Writing for Change Conference and took the red-eye home, getting little sleep. Must. Pass. Out. The conference was very cool and quite unique. It featured a lot of writers who had promising nonfiction books that can alter people's lives for the better. The conference isn't put on every year, but if this type of writing is up your alley, check it out in the future.

a famous location for San Fran book lovers.
I asked if they carried my book and the

'How to Survive a Robot Attack,' right?
