I've mentioned this before, but there have been these strange events where people have been writing songs about or inspired by some of my work. For a guy like me who, if I could have figured out a guitar, would not have written any books at all, this is the coolest thing ever.

Calexico. "Across the Wire." From their album, Feast of Wire.

PS--thank you to all the bloggers and twitterers who are starting to comment on Into the Beautiful North. I can't wait for it to get out into the general population. You have been very kind.
