Welcome to Litsy!

From Facebook: Berkeley will be on stage at the LA Times Festival of Books next Sunday, April 23rd at 10:30 am. I normally wouldn't advertise a book event, especially because I live nowhere near LA, but come on!!! This is big!!! If I were in town I'd be in the front row. Opus! Bill the Cat!! Steve Dallas!! Okay, enough said.

"For years I've thought back to how Grandma had listened to all the great things that I said she'd been missin'. How that night she had paused at the foot of my bed, and *smiled* at those Milky Way cows overhead. I sure like to think that one night or next...she'll get carried away and depart from the text."
