New Bookstore!

Dropped by a new bookstore yesterday, Booktenders, up in York, Maine. 


Lovely spot, alongside Route 1, with much to do up there. 

Met Michelle, one of the proprietors, and after a short discussion, they'll be stocking some of my books!

Love working with indie bookstores. If you're up north, between Portsmouth and Portland, stop by and shop local!

David Daniel Talk at Tatnuck's

 Went to a great reading and chat at Tatnuck Booksellers in Westborough, MA. 

David Daniel gave a few short readings from his new book Beach Town: Stories.


Some interested folks came out on a rainy Saturday to enjoy the reads and ask questions.

Here he is with Rebecca, the marketing and Events Coordinator.


Great bookstore! I'll be making more trips there in the future. Huge space and selection there.
