* 6:30 PM: I am not sure how I feel about former President Jimmy Carter. I was merely a wee tot when he was CIC; since then he’s been a relentless activist. How effective is his activism? Is he helping or hindering a Middle East peace? It depends on your point of view. Judge for yourself: Mr. Carter will be at the U-District UW Bookstore to sign his most recent book, We Can Have Peace in the Holy Land: A Plan That Will Work. There’s a whole list of signing guidelines, so be sure to check the link before you run out to buy yourself a copy.

* 7:30 PM: Seattle artist Ginny Ruffner will be at Elliott Bay Book Co. to promote her newest pop-up book, The Imagination Cycle, proving that pop-up books aren’t just for kids. I love pop-up books. And pop-up cards. Anything that pops-up, really. Anyway… examples of Ruffner’s work can be found around town; find out where by checking her website.
