I love books. And I love bookstores. And there is no better bookstore in the world than Portland’s Powell’s City of Books: it has five stories, filled from top to bottom with books! It’s like a Mecca for bibliophiles, and one of my favorite places in Oregon.

And last Thursday, I was honored to do a reading for I Speak for Myself in this very bookstore. The turnout was wonderful, and Powell’s did an extraordinary job of making me feel welcome and setting up a great space for my reading. There were lots of great questions and fantastic audience questions and comments!

Thank you to Powell’s and everyone who came out to listen to my talk and support me!
