On April 14, the Let’s See How Far This Car Can Go book tour begins. An old-fashioned, road trip book tour in celebration of readers and bookstores, small cities and big towns, the overworked and the underemployed, whores, registered nurses, and the publication of I’m a Registered Nurse Not a Whore.

The trip is in honour of my mom, who quietly passed away, in Vancouver, just as the crazy celebrations of the 2010 Winter Olympics were about to commence. It was a few days later that I received a publishing offer from Insomniac Press for I’m a Registered Nurse Not a Whore. This is my way of sharing the book with her. I’ll be touring the country in her 89 Mustang. And as far as the old Mustang wants to go — is as far as the tour goes. With a little luck and a big engine that could, we just might make it from the sunshine coast to the Rock. Hope to see you en route.
