Spork proofreading is getting really anal...

A glimpse at the progress I've made proofreading "The Stray King" in Spork 9.1 this week. No wonder it takes me so long to write anything.

--reread draft 3 (hopefully the last?)

My reading is tonight!

Dear friends and readers,

The excerpt's been chosen, the restaurant reserved, and everything is ready for tonight. I can't wait to see all you guys for my first official reading since moving down to LA.

A few last minute notes:
--We'll be out on the patio, so bring a sweater.
--I'm reading last, so if you think you might be a little late, that's ok. Still come!

Reading Special:
Preorder Spork 9.1 and receive ENCANTADO, Chapter 1 at http://steventagle.com/store

After the reading, join me across the street for appetizers (sweet potato fritters, calamari, cheese and charcuterie) and drinks (Sprite or stronger!) at the charming Allston Yacht Club.
