I had my book launch in my hometown for The Adoration of Jenna Fox this past weekend. It was wonderful to share the afternoon with friends, family, and neighbors. My sister took photos of the event including this one she artistically altered. Cool. I wish my book glowed on every table.
Before the signing I gave my little spiel well planned talk, and shared a few insights about the book. There was also a photographer from the Union Tribune there and my sister told me he was on the other side of the bookcase behind me getting a picture of the back of my head. Certainly a much better viewpoint.
Then it was time to sign. See those flowers on the corner of the table? A very sweet young man (thanks Dan!) brought those to me.
And of course a picture with my sis who took all the pictures. And I swear we didn't color coordinate our outfits. There were LOTS of blue clothes that day.
When we got back to my house we celebrated and had a butterfly cake that my darling hubby ordered for me.
Oh! And the surprise at my signing!
Guess who came?! Richard Dreyfuss!
Well, not exactly. He was in the store at the time of my signing and then was an awfully good sport when one obnoxious author exuberant author interrupted his browsing and asked if she could have her picture taken with him. It was a fun "close encounter." |
