Ok Boston this is IT!

Last spring I went to Boston and damn near starved and froze to death.
I figured it was a fluke.

I bravely agreed to go back, coaxed with promises of scotch, Crimebake and visiting the ICA.
I slithered into South Station with Barbara Poelle in pursuit of Art.
Here is the first thing we saw:



















BARBARA'S Bestsellers!
Not Janet's!
Not Boston's!
Not even A Whole Lottas.

No. Barbara's Bestsellers.

That's IT Boston, we are finished.
Keep your art.
Keep your fabulous writing conferences.
I'm grabbing my broom and flying home.

Harumph.

    Hey! Barb's Bestseller's has some nifty little books - saved my rear a few times with those long acela rides to NYC and beyond ;^)

    And hey - she's an Indie! Peace, Linda

    Say it isn't so! This stone's-throw-from-Beantown chick hearts all things Boston *and* Janet Reid's blog. Worlds are colliding, but it needs to be in a good way!

Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.

If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.


Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.

If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
