BOOK TOUR FOR "THE SKY'S THE LIMIT" (ONE), OCTOBER 1990

 File — Box: 136, Folder: 41

Scope and Contents

70 pages. This tour was scheduled for New Mexico, Colorado, Chicago, Texas, California (L.A. and Bay Area), Arizona, Portland, Seattle. I made it through N.M., Chicago, and Colorado (October 12-27), then got sick (heart problems) and cancelled the rest of the tour. A tragedy, because Julie Grinnell, the Norton publicist, had worked incredibly hard to set up a great tour. In this folder: 1.) Pages 1-43 are tour scheduling and activities. 2.) Pages 44-48 are Norton publicity. 3.) Pages 49-69 are letters to and from booksellers and fans, with pages 54-55 being a letter to Bill Rusin, head of sales at Norton and my good buddy--we designed Sky's the Limit together. Also, letter to Julie Grinell.
