>This is the week of the excellent Virginia Festival of the Book or, as we call it around here, VaBook. It starts Wednesday morning, but I won’t get over there until sometime Thursday for some panels that look good to me, and I’ll also head back on Friday. The panel I’m moderating is on Saturday (“Writers in Community”). If you’re in the Charlottesville neighborhood, check out the schedule and hit a few of the events. And buy some books!
