So yeah -- the bridge in Round Rock at the McNeil exit going toward the hotel -- it has MORE BATS under it than the Congress Street Bridge in Austin! At least according to pal/author Jessica Lee Anderson, as she dropped me off after Torchy's Tacos (The Crossroads taco -- brisket and avocado-- is heaven) and some writing time. So call her on it, if it's not true. All I know is that she rolled down the windows so I could smell the guano. Yum.

Thanks to their amazing teacher and book love, Valerie Burleigh!! More schools today and a signing at BN in Round Rock at 7.
Here's where you can get tacos with the best names ever, like the Dirty Sanchez:
And here are authors Jessica Lee Anderson and Stephanie Pellegrin, who helped me eat my body weight in queso:

More soon from the all Joy Preble, all the time, solo ANASTASIA FOREVER TEXAS TOUR! Thanks to Sourcebooks for arranging.

OMG THEY STOLE MY CUPCAKE IDEA!!! ;) Oh well, imitation is the greatest form of flattery :)
So glad I got to spend some time with you!!! And I promise the bat info wasn't made up--I met an expert from the Bat Conservatory there a year or so ago.
Yay! It was so good to see you! Hope you had a fantastic tour and I hope to see you again soon! <3
