Tonight in Athens, y'all! See you at Athentic Brewing Co., where you can buy a book (Lab Dog, from Avid Bookshop), drink a beer, raise some bucks (for the Athens Area Humane Society) and best of all, pet some beagles (bred to be used in research)! #beagles, #animalresearch, #booksky
Thrilled to return to one of my favorite towns tonight to discuss Lab Dog--Asheville! We'll have a great group tonight at @firestorm.coop, where I'll be in conversation with Plant's Jason Sellers. See you there!
