Grateful

I am on my way home this morning after a terrific few days in Chicago. I was here for a conference at Northwestern University, but stayed an extra day in order to celebrate the release of my new book with friends. I was so pleased that many of my Chicago-area friends joined me for drinks yesterday.

I’m excited that the new book is starting to find its way into the hands of readers.

And I’m grateful for all of them!
