That would be GREAT!!! Any hints on when/where that might happen? Inquiring minds want to know... I have this vision of you and Dave offering a green writers' retreat in some out-of-the-way state park during the off season. A Cocktail Hour retreat for readers/writers? That would be GREAT!!!

I wonder if I could build a kind of Mary Robison novel out of hundreds of little outtakes like that from everything I've ever written. I mean, I know that's not how it's done, but. Gessner and I had a blast. it was way too brief, but we'll soon cross paths again. Hoping before long to offer a Cocktail Hour retreat. Thanks Susan.

Pub date is spring 2012, publisher is Algonquin. So maybe Christmas 2012.... For 2011, we have Dave's <em>Tarball Chronicles</em>coming out in the fall, and of course his <em>My Green Manifesto</em>will still be available! But my books are much better. Thanks, Shelley.

If these are the "discards," I'll have to set aside a day or two to read the book straight through. I'm delighted to hear you and Dave are enjoying face-to-face conversations with real cocktails. Virtual conversations are a godsend, but they still can't hold a candle to to two friends talking a mile-a-minute in the same room. :) Good luck on the book tour, Dave. Any stops in CT?
