Evidently we got out of New Orleans just in time; flooding started there yesterday, serious
flooding. from the thunderstorms, that are part of the system flooding all those developments in Texas that were built -- on the flood plains.
Here, the temps plunged into the 50's last night. Currently, due to the rain (and lots of flash flooding), there are delays at the airports of up to 3 hours, which means the same for landing. I'm so glad we weren't flying home today. It never broke out of the 50's today, and tomorrow will be the same including the rain, the flash floods, etc.

Yesterday el V went off to the Javits Center yesterday, to meet Publisher and Publicist. Alas, I stayed home because my body was broken from all the time in a car and an airplane and many bad chairs from the last week. I feel as though every part of my body has been carefully beaten, particularly the lower back and my joints.
BEA per se, was over, but there was an associated event for the weekend for which publisher and publicist stayed. So though I sadly missed meeting up with them, I'm sure el V filled in for us both splendidly.
He returned with one of the big blow-up poster boards of the cover Publisher had up in the booth. It is so impressive and effective at that size. We will take it with us on the book tour -- it will be nice to have up in the bookstores. Really, this large poster board does look very nice -- so bright against the red, and includes the tactile sense of the nubby paper that is the jacket.
More news of TASC later!
