First confirmed Charlie Higson US book tour stops
I'll update as new stops are confirmed. Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear Charlie will be having a signing in California. But he will be passing through LA, probably for press.
That Washington appearance at the International Spy Museum looks like it could be something special. I've been wanting to take a trip to D.C. If I can meet a rich old woman by May, marry her, then bilk her out of her life savings, I'll attend.

2 stops of his are about 2-3 hours away from me. I wonder what my schedule will be like then..

The International Spy Museum in DC would be a great place to see him. Too bad it's Memorial Day weekend.
i may have to go to that one.

you could skip a limited chance to see charlie higson or miss lost and dvr it to watch it the next day. sounds like a difficult decision.

It is actually, because I already planned a viewing party with about 20 people invited
Must admit though, Higson is in the lead at the moment...

I knew it! Alright, I'm gonna start re-reading SilverFin...
Seriously though, Higson it is. Just sounds like too much fun. Besides, I was hoping with your connections Zencat I could pick Charlie up at the airport and maybe grab a pint after the event

Re Lost: One day during the writers strike I was walking the picket line with JJ Abrams and he was holding a sign that read, "Want to know what the island is?" or "Ask me what the island is." Something that this.
