Both.
Thought I could write and run a bookstore at the same time.
Funny stuff. It's hard enough to do either of those jobs, let
alone both at the same time. Also, I've had the store almost
two years now and my two sons do not want to spend this
summer in a bookstore.

Terry's a good friend. She'll be at Jeff Parker's signing
tonight if you plan on dropping in. I hope it's not telling

pretty good.
