We're trying to work out book signings beyond California. So, we'll try to get out to the midwest, south and east coast. Already got an offer to come out to Austin, TX — perhaps an event at the Alamo Drafthouse?August Ragonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11708963205755568342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3252368450821139612.post-62854629632203821982008-03-12T08:44:00.000-07:002008-03-12T08:44:00.000-07:00I wish I could go to San Fransisco!

It's my favorite of the Showa-era Toho films and has a timeless quality not found in any of the other entries.<BR/><BR/>You're going to plotz when it see it large!Bunche (pop culture ronin)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11831085937894725459noreply@blogger.com
