It’s November and I have another big month in my book tour – readings in Maryland, Virginia, DC, and Texas! Come out to one of them and say hello!
November also brings Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday. It’s a holiday that brings food, friends, laughter, joy, and togetherness — all without the drama that is often, for me, included in Christmas. Almost every year, for nearly 20 years now, I’ve hosted a Thanksgiving Brunch, held the Sunday before the holiday. Calling it brunch is a little misleading as it starts at 11am and has no firm end time. The past few years I’ve begun cleaning up — the polite, Midwestern way of saying, “It’s time for you to go” without actually saying it — around 4pm and most people leave. But one year we had people as late as 9pm!
I hope your November is wonderful and filled with kindness. The world needs more of that right now.
