    Oh god! I'm so upset that I don't live in NY right now. :( I totaly agree with Ms. Bookworm, come to Stockholm!! *puppyeyes* me and Ms. Bookworm could give you the best tour ever. Please? BUT, I am trying to mannipulate my parents so that they will let me go to NY, or at least go there with me. And then I am going to find you, no matter what it takes. ;)

    I'll try to convince my mom to let me take the subway (and get lost :P) alone to some random place in Queens...wish me luck!

    Are you giving a talk or something?
    Since most of us on the blog can't go, would you blog about it afterwards and talk a bit about it?
    Thanks!

    Carry no seal:
    I agree with you.

    can you come down south sometime?

    No one likes southerners they think we're all a bunch of hillbillies. That was hollywood not down south for those who didn't know.

    not in june.
    nashville is a great central location...
    and music city USA... you can meet a lot of singers.

  27. Kirsten MillerMay 10, 2008 at 4:03 PM

    Jin Ai: I think Flushing is probably pretty darn safe. I have to get out there myself, so when I figure out how, I'll post instructions in case you can make it!

    Kitty: That would be awesome!

    Everyone who asked: I'm going to be talking about underground places and what they mean to me (heh heh). No seriously, I'm going to talk about what inspired the shadow city--and also the underground world featured in BOOK # THREE.

    Dear West-Coasters, Swedes, Aussies, and Southerners: I will get to you eventually, I PROMISE. (Probably the Southerners first, though, cause that's where my parents live.)

    DARN, I forgot, I have fencing thursdays :( :( :( :(
    AUGHHHHHHHHHHHHH
    And I looked for instructions; it seems like there's a 30 minute walk from the subway station...now, a thirty minute walk for most people is a four hour walk for me. -_- So even if I could miss fencing, I'd be about three hours late.
    Oh well.
    PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE blog about how it went and tell us a bit about what was in the talk!!
