M is for Moon Palace in Minneapolis

It's Friday night and I feel all right 'cuz days like today make me glad I spent my twenties (in the 90s as reference above) living in South Minneapolis where there's cool, hip new places like Moon Palace Books hiding behind awesome coffee shops like Peace Coffee right in my neighborhood!

I'm excited to announce that Alphabet Adventure books are now available in the South side and nobody does it like South Central does.

I LOVE this bookstore and am so grateful for the opportunity to sell my books there.  One day I hope and dream books still exist and I get to fulfill my dream of opening a bookstore like Moon Palace with both new AND used books.

Moon Palace Books hosts all kinds of great events including tomorrow's book release (Saturday, May 17) of Mike Huber's Mama's Gloves at 1 PM.  He will be reading, selling, and signing his brand new book. Mark your calendars for the Open Eye Figure Theater Puppet Show Driveway Tour's performance of Tucker's Robot. There will be live music and all kinds of fun for families.
