Stacks and boxes of SAM and JUMP are on their way! This is the stack of author's copies that landed on my doorstep a few days ago. The book will be available in bookstores and to ship in less than two weeks, and I am busy getting ready to celebrate!
I hope that if you are in the Seattle area you can come out to one of my book launch parties and help me celebrate! Bring your beloved stuffed animal, or your stories of lost and found beloveds. There may even be cupcakes!
