I love book signings, especially with authors that I like. If a book author has a book signing in NYC, I'll be there.
Today I went to a book signing at my local quilt shop. Clare O’Donohue, author of two books in the "Someday Quilt" mysteries series was there to tell us how she got started and the roads she traveled to bring her story to the printed page. It was a great event and I'm glad I discovered her work. Oh the best thing was before she started the session, she asked if I was there. I love it when authors remember me from emails or correspondence. I had told her I would be attending this event. I got both my books autographed and it is sitting on my autographed book row.
Word of the Day: ACIDULOUS - sour in taste or manner
New York Trivia: On this day in 1858, Roland Macy opened Macy's Department Store in New York City. It was Macy's eighth business venture -- the other seven failed. And on this day in 1904, the New York subway system officially opened. It was the first rapid-transit subway system in America.
Steps taken today: 5,642 (rain)
on TV tonight: nothing
I'm reading Heir of the Dog by Judi McCoy, the second book in the "Dog Walker" mystery series.
