    I'M IN A BOOKSTORE!

    Had a great day with my publicist, Janine Schunk of JEM Public Relations. We visited Vroman's Bookstore, a Pasadena based independent bookstore that features local authors in addition to having world class commercial books, a huge children's section, and a spacious, visiting author speaking area. Phil Jackson recently spoke there about a new memoir. Janine arranged for The Trust Company to be prominently displayed and I will be a visiting speaker there in a couple of months. Looking forward to it. If you find yourself in Pasadena, don't pass up the opportunity to visit Vroman's. If you are like me, you will spend hours there walking the aisles and browsing. They make a great cappuccino, too (but don't get the oil-barrel sized large unless you have a few friends with you).=
