Today In "Firming Up Like Jello"—   Rise of the Trust Fall Book Tour

I'm hitting the road this Fall with nothing but some very heavy boxes of books and a threadbare peacoat.  I will updating the site as often as possible when dates are firmed up, but in September I'll be coming through the midwest out to the east coast, landing for a show in New York on September 29th, the first week of October I'll be around and about the NE, and then mid October through the end I'll be touring up the West Coast to Vancouver with the Dream Press Tour (Mike McGee, Brian Ellis, Jon Sands, Karen Finneyfrock and I have teamed up.  Amazing.)  And it looks like I'll be back at GirlFest Hawaii this November.

I'll be coming through the south and everywhere else in Winter and Spring, so if you want to make a request that I come to your town, just send an email to booking at thecultofmindy.com or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Today In "Stuff That Sounds True"

“I’ve found that your chances for happiness are increased if you wind up doing something that is a reflection of what you loved most when you were somewhere between nine and eleven years old.  At that age, you know enough of the world to have opinions about things, but you’re not old enough yet to be overly influenced by the crowd or by what other people are doing or what you think you “should” be doing. If what you do later on ties into that reservoir in some way, then you are nurturing some essential part of yourself.”

—Walter Murch, The Conversations
