Then he emailed us about his newest opus, . He told us, "I'm especially excited about it, so any plug that you could give it would be so appreciated (Ed note: Ask, and ye shall receive...sometimes). It came out just about two weeks ago and is published by Random House and available in all of the finest independents in San Francisco And of course, the giant chains, too." Jarett, you had us at "finest independents".

He'll be in the Bay Area tomorrow stumping away for his "farm-animals-playing-punk-rock-music odyssey" (so much easier to deal with than the farm animal book SFist Jackson's parents read to him as a tot).

He'll be at Danville's Rakestraw Books tomorrow at 10 AM, then he's making his way over to Marin County to the San Rafael Borders at 6 PM Wednesday night. (These towns must be where the kids are.)

Your inner (or outer) child will get quite a kick out of this, so stop by and say "hi" to Jarrett, and tell him SFist sent you.
