A friend sent me a photo of her newspaper when she discovered I was in it! I was selected for “Atención Presents: San Miguel Authors” and will be presenting at the Ignacio Ramírez Cultural Center on Tuesday, October 27th at 3:00. #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #writinglife
A photo of the inestimable Susan Page (right), founder of the San Miguel Writers' Conference, at the opening of the newly expanded Aurora Bookstore—a lovely new space for writers, readers, and book clubs to meet. #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #writinglife
There he stands, overlooking the revelry every night, and I can't even tell you his name. Now I feel bad. I will find out tomorrow! #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #mexico
"Living in the now." An excellent idea. That's what I'm doing. #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #writinglife #artistatwork #streetsatnight
The Parroquia is purple tonight! I do not know why. There is so much I do not know. #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #mexico
I once overheard someone say that you could tell who the tourists were because they were the ones "taking pictures of the bougainvillea." That's when I knew I wanted to always be a tourist. #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #bougainvillea
Late night peeking into the window of the monastery! #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #streetsatnight
Out to eat with Sharon and Michael. What a couple of positive folks. Very fun. #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #goodfriends
A couple of shots from my walk tonight. The skeletons are not seasonal. They are just some low-key advertising for the funeral parlor they reside in! #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #mexico #dayofthedead #streetsatnight
Just another beautiful night on the streets of San Miguel. #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #streetsatnight #mexico
Flowers from my walk tonight. One half of my walk is quiet and filled with plants. The other is noisy and filled with celebrations. It's a perfect walk! #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #mexico
Some dapper gentlemen on the streets of San Miguel de Allende this evening. #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #streetsatnight

Here in San Miguel, I went out for the first haul of fruit and vegetables. This is what feeling rich looks like to me! ❤️ #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #casadelossoleshotel #mexico #ilovevegetables
And we're back in our place after a long day traveling. So good to be back in San Miguel! ❤️ #postscript #sanmiguel #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky
My white dress was just lying there on the chair because I left it there after the theater. It was late. It was not suppsoed to be a cat bed! #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #dresses #minnesota #catlove

I had a very fun time with members of my cousin Susan's book club, I hiked in the mountains, and I saw some very old cabins. The weather in the Rocky Mountains has been perfect! #rockymountains #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #familylove
Another beautiful day in the Rockies with my family. Here are my mom and dad, enjoying the view. #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #familylove
A beautiful day at my family reunion in Estes Park, CO. I took a hike with my cousins, Dane and Brian. Then my amazing cousin, Melissa, prepared a taco bar feast! The aspens are turning yellow, and the sky is blue. #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #familylove #estespark
I'm in beautiful Estes Park at a family reunion hosted by my cousin, Susan! So much fun. We saw that big elk on our way in! #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #familylove
I am headed out the door to the post office with a whole cart load of advance reader copies of The Turnip House going to editors to review. So exciting! #turniphouse #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #writinglife #stpaul

More from my library tour! The chairs and troll are from Detroit Lakes. The center photo was taken at the Lake Park City Hall, where we had a surprisingly great turnout for a town of 700 souls! #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofinstagram #upnorth #minnesota #writinglife #loonpoint #upnorthmn
Here I am, watching the audience in Moorhead, MN, file in before my second presentation today. Two days, four presentations. Two more days and four more libraries to go! #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofbluesky #upnorth #minnesota #writinglife #upnorthmn #loonpoint
A few views from my new digs in beautiful Detroit Lakes, Minnesota. My little motel has a view of the lake and a very complete kitchen. I think it will be an excellent base camp for a week of presentations! #postscript #andrewsmcmeel #writersofinbluesky #upnorth #minnesota #writinglife #upnorthmn
