But here's the big news: Look what I discovered to get my feet CA- and VA-sandal ready: orange mint foot cream! And speaking of feet...I have a confession to make: I have discovered zappos.com, a Godsend for a girl with size 11 feet. Check out one of my pairs of book-signing shoes (which were a bigger hit than me Tuesday night!) So the confession is that now that I Zappos...I kinda get the shoe thing.

Sounds like you're having a great time with your book signings. And thank you so much for the link to Zappos. I, too, am size 11 but I notice they have sizes much higher. Makes my feet feel small.
Carleen--
I knew we were fated to meet! I, too, wear a size 11!! Here are some pictures of my shoes. I *heart* Zappos, too!

Holy Cow! Zappo's lists sizes up to 18!!! The sandals are very pretty and I'm hoping Scott and I can make it to the West End party. He was pretty envious that he couldn't make it to the TC -- we couldn't get a dogsitter and -- well, you know about our special issues dog :)
Oh yes, Zappos rocks! Gotta love their return policies too. HOW did I miss those shoes at your signing?? You looked glam from head to toe, I must say. Definitely very authorish! I'm with Lisa on that Rocky review; not sure the reviewer was on track with every point but Lisa's comment set it all straight. ENJOY all your upcoming signings! K.
Carleen has found "shoes"!!!! And now she "gets" it!!! Yipee!!! ^5 for Zappos!!! :)
Moana and Tayari, I'm in good company! I thought only I and drag queens wore size 11.
Lisa, Hope we get to see you Sat. night!
Karen, Yes: free shipping both ways?! Can't beat it!
Sherry, Thanks for not saying "told ya so!" :-)
OMG, you found the joy of shoes--welcome to our world. :)
