City of Ninjas

Fast, useless post today, since I'm running around crazy in preparation for travel. Tomorrow I will be here:

I'm only a little excited. Okay, A LOT excited. Though I spent my childhood just across the bay in Fremont, it has been a very long time since I've actually been IN San Francisco. And this time it's even more awesome, because that's where Relax, I'm a Ninja is set. There's just something special about visiting the place where my characters "live." Imagine me taking lots of pictures and suspecting everyone of being ninjas.

I might also be on the look out for Hot Guys Reading. See? Guys read! Best. Blog. Ever.

Also, I have decided not to bring my computer. I know, hardcore. But I want real vacation time! That, and I'll be busy with Kasie watching the entirety of Escaflowne. So if you email me or whatnot, I may not see it until Tuesday. Don't feel neglected, I'm just gone.

Well, I better get back to preparations. There are important things to do—like pick reading material and figure out what to wear (and maybe I should clean the house and make enough food so Nick doesn't starve...). How many pairs of shoes can I get away with bringing? Like four? Tennis shoes, flats, sandals, and high heels. That's reasonable, right?

  1. Someday I hope to visit the places my books are set, but traveling to Japan is a lot more difficult...

    And when I leave for a weekend--or even an evening--I have to make food or else my hubby forgets to feed himself too :P

    Have lots of fun!

  9. HAVE FUN, WOMAN!! And if you see any ninjas, take a picture. Or, you know, a picture of WHERE you saw the ninja. Because I don't think they develop in pictures.

  12. Have fun! San Fancisco is awesome! By the way, I just read "Into the Wild Nerd Yonder" on your recommendation and I loved it! Thanks! :) It also had me reminiscing about this time in high school when I had a crush on a nerd so I found him on Facebook and it made me happy when I saw pictures of him with his hot girlfriend.

  14. That is so exciting! SF was my closest big city growing up. I always feel so alive when I'm there. I wish I get to go to where my book is set soon too, but for me its a little scary. But it should lend some help to revisions!

  16. I used to travel between Asia and the US. The worse of it was choosing what to wear. It could be 75 in Hong Kong and 28 in NYC. Argghhhh! And those 15 hour flights! Oy! I can surely understand your packing dilemma.LOL
