I just got home from an book signing and author interview at Borders. There were four authors there, one straight Sci-Fi, and three Fantasy writers. Allen Steele, Lynn Flewelling, Will McDermott (another Terry Pratchett fan, like me), and Anne Bishop.
It was the first time I'd ever gone to one of these kinds of things, and it was really good. The authors gave a little panel discussion on their books, writing, and the world of publishing. Then after the question and answer session, they signed books. I got book from each of them.
I haven't read any of their works before, so I look forward to discovering their styles. The only author that was supposed to be there that I was familiar with, Stephen Brust, was unable to make it due to a severe infection. He was hospitalized earlier this week for it.
All in all, it was a good way to spend a couple of hours. Now I've got to see if I can make it to EerieCon 7 this weekend. I might be able to squeeze Saturday in...
