Thanks to everyone (especially Neal Stephenson) who came out to last night's Walkaway event in Seattle: if you're in the area and couldn't make it, you get another chance tonight when I'll be at Bellingham's Village Books at 7PM.
After the event, I'm driving to Vancouver for an appearance tomorrow at the Vancouver Writers' Festival, and then on Saturday I'm doing an afternoon event at my local bookstore in Burbank, the excellent Dark Delicacies, just before I hop in a cab to LAX to fly to the UK.
In the UK, I'm stopping first in Oxford (with Tim Harford), then London (with Laurie Penny), then Liverpool (with Chris Pak), then Birmingham, before finishing in Hay-on-Wye (with Adam Rutherford).
After that, the US touring resumes anew, with stops at Denver Comic-Con, San Diego Comic-Con, Book Con NYC, Printer's Row Chicago, and Defcon in Las Vegas.
Can't wait to see you!

While mosquitoes have certainly earned their title as the deadliest animal on earth, their impact on most of our lives is usually a lot less consequential. But even though they might not transmit a disease to you or seriously affect your life, being a blood donor for one of those insects is certainly an annoyance. […]
The bar has been raised on home video production. So just in case you haven’t been on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok or other video-heavy platforms lately, the days of the boring, white-walled, locked-down selfie video that looks like it could have been filmed by hostage-takers doesn’t really cut it anymore. Thankfully, your filming options have also […]
