Fed the pigs a mix of hog feed and curdled goat milk. In the background you can hear Anne Murray singing on the pickup truck radio. It was tuned to WCFW, where FM means Fine Music.

Behold the Glowing Dome
My second appearance on The Morning Blend is now online. I am most fascinated by the way the light rolls around on my head.
It was fun. They surprised me with those band photos!
Video of Reading in Mequon
Man, I’ve already put some miles on since then, but fun to see the folks at Next Chapter Bookshop in Mequon posted a video of me reading from Coop. The next morning I checked out of my hotel room in Milwaukee and drove to Hartford, Wisconsin, did a reading and a Long Beds concert, then drove to Madison only to discover I left all my clean clothes in Milwaukee.
Morning TV in Milwaukee
Here’s a link to The Morning Blend interview I did with Molly and Tiffany. First TV stop of the Coop paperback tour. The baby food reference at the end was related to the preceding piece in which there was discussion of Jennifer Aniston’s legs and “baby food diet”. Good luck with that.
Also of interest to me, if no one else. On shows like this, you have a brief amount of time to tell as much of the story as you can. Plus, it’s early. So I tend to go a mile-a-minute even though 30 minutes previous I was groggily bumping around a dark hotel room. This leads to mental fuzz. Note how I mention that the coop wasn’t finished before the first egg came; then note how I speak of my daughter going to the coop to find that first egg. Now I’ve got to go back and check the book and see what part of that quote is accurate. Sheesh. Glad I wasn’t testifying before Congress.
Montaigne and Erectile Dysfunction
Fun interview I did recently with Cathy Wurzer of Twin Cities Public Television.
Yes, I really have been reading Montaigne lately, but I should have mentioned Dr. Suess, too…
