  11. Ron Tanner's cross-country tour

One example: the 66-city tour by <a href="http://www.loyola.edu/academic/writing/faculty/ron-tanner.aspx" target="_blank">Loyola University Maryland writing professor</a> Ron Tanner in a beat-up van -- a voyage that has included savage mosquitos, a busted toilet and a fair share of overnights in Walmart parking lots. (You can follow along <a href="http://ronaldtanner.com/blog/" target="_blank">on his blog.</a>) Tanner is promoting his latest book, "<a href="http://ronaldtanner.com/animal.php" target="_blank">From Animal House to Our House: A Love Story,"</a> which describes the work in renovating a Baltimore rowhouse. His next reading in Baltimore is scheduled on Aug. 25 at 5:30 p.m., at The Windup Space, 12 W. North Avenue. Meanwhile, enjoy this review kindly provided to Read Street by local author <a href="http://www.stoopstorytelling.com/storytellers/940" target="_blank">Rosalia Scalia:</a>
