Pictures from last Saturday
(This post is mostly copied from my other blog that no one reads, anyway. I just did it over there first so I wouldn't have to bother with Imageshack.)
Unfortunately, Mom ran away with the camera to read one of the books I got after about 10 minutes. So I only have two pictures from the book signing. They are...
Wayne Thomas Batson, signing my book! Which I started reading on Sunday as soon as I got up and took it to the college with me every day this week. Just about everyone at the college who knows me has now heard of Wayne Thomas Batson. Heh, I tend to give lots of free commercial time.
I believe he signed Ryan's to "Sir Ryan the Swordmaster." Had I known Ryan would bring his sword and assassin blade, I would have dressed up, too. Ya'll could probably guess that I seriously considered it.
He is also the one who did that fantastic dramatic reading that made me buy the rest of his series. Like Mr. Graham said after I asked him if he was going to read, too... "How could you follow that?" I don't know if anyone could. None of it got on the Motiv8 video, though. Phooey!
Oh, look back at that picture. See Jonathan Rogers there at the edge? This is a random observation, but his costume was terrific! I'd never considered gray furs in a costume, but that was awesome. His books looked really interesting (Okay, all the books there did...). If I was rich, I would have bought all of them. As it was, I came home with only 7 new books.
Speaking of Mr. Graham, Mom got a picture of him signing Zach's book:
I don't have to give him commercial time... He's pretty popular 'round here. We chatted for a bit about Christian fiction and then the end of Beyond the Summerland. *grin* It was, indeed, a very good ending. A maddeningly good ending.
And now a link to the video they made of the day. I'm in it at least 3 times (in the last third of the video, about The Salt Shaker).
You can see the sword fight on the video, too. That was fun. The camera guy had to dive for cover at one point (watch the video until the very, very end and you'll see it).
A bonus picture, because I'm feeling generous. :-)
Susan Marlow and I going over my novel after she'd bled on the first 70 pages:
Notice the red pen she's holding? Yeah...
That's about it for now. Thanks for visiting! Say, I hope it's not too late to throw this in as a Show n' Tell. I'm going to run over to Mary's and enter it quick! |

I never even thought of suggesting you bring your costume. Rats! It would have been fun!
