You are all AWESOME!!

A nice poster for FAKING 19 in the Novo Seculo booth!

The on-stage interview with Val! We had lunch the day before and she's awesome!

View of the crowd--you guys ROCK!

Answering audience questions via the English translation coming through my headset!

After the interview we took a few pics and then we were off to the signing (below)!

Brazil in Pictures!

Hey Everyone-

Well, it's taken me a while to get them all sorted, but over the next several days I hope to post pictures of my recent Brazilian Book Tour-- before I head off on the Pen Fatale Tour next week!

So, without further delay, here is a look at day 1--enjoy!!

The trip to Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro!

The first stop on Sugarloaf

Amazing view of Rio!

More Rio!

Even more Rio!

Ascending into the mist--didn't get pictures up there--too windy and rainy and misty--but awesome all the same!

Stay tuned--more to come!
