January 17th, 2010, 7 pm – I’ll appear for a reading at Book Passage in Corte Madera — along with Travel writers Millicent Susens, Carol Beddo and Ken Matesow. We’re all featured in Best Travel Writing: True Stories from Around the World, 2009 ($17.95). “High adventure, spiritual growth, romance, hilarity, misadventure, service to humanity, and encounters with exotic cuisine highlight these stories from fellow travelers.” I’ll read an excerpt from my story about taking my mother to India for her 75th birthday. An exotic Sunday excursion!
