Can't argue with canvassing for Obama.
We'll be back in mid-December, just for the holidays, alas.
Get lots of votes for him!
Love, P.

Hi Pamela: I thought I would be able to make it but have succumbed
and agreed to canvas for Obama on Saturday. I hope you will
consider this a worthwhile alternative. When do you and Joe come
back, and is it just for the Xmas holidays or for a semester? In
any case, see you then.

If you can tear yourself away from the movie people: On Saturday,
September 27, I will appear at the New Mexico Women Authors'
Festival on Milner Plaza. My informal reading and discussion of my
novel, "The Edge of Chaos," will be in the Fiction Pavilion at
11:20 a.m., followed by a book signing.
I'm pleased to tell you that "The Edge of Chaos" was one of four
books (and the sole novel) "highly recommended" this summer by The
Highlands Forum, a high-tech consulting group connected with The
Pentagon; and one of three books (again, the only novel) "highly
recommended" to members of the international consulting group, The
Global Business Network. Since it is fiction, basically a love
story, and beneath that, a search for spiritual completion, I was
surprised to learn about these recommendations--but happy.
Since publication, "The Edge of Chaos" has also received
exceptionally warm endorsements from Stewart Brand, the editor of
the Whole Earth Catalog; from Brian Eno, the well-known musician;
from poet Jane Hirshfield; and from George Newlin, author of
"Everybody and Everything in Dickens." You'll see those
endorsements on the back of the new printing.
Hope to see you on Saturday.
Pamela
