Sasquan, Thursday
Aug. 21st, 2015 07:52 amMade it to Sasquan safely, and - as per usual - spent most of the afternoon trying to get from point A to point B without meeting a dozen people along the way I had to stop and say hi to.
The fires are a thing on most peoples' mind - how can it not, with the smoke clotting the sky, and turning the sun and moon both reddish? - but it's not slowing the pace of events.
The autographing went quite well - got to hang out with Fran Wilde, while signing a lovely number of books from my varied publishing past (not so many of the PSI books, but a LOT of Retrievers and a metric load of Vineart War, plus a number of anthologies). And I gave out many nifty new bookmarks, and people got to fondle the galley of SILVER ON THE ROAD.
Then it was on to the Horror/Paranormal panel, where things occasionally threatened to derail into sidebar issues, but our moderator brought things back more or less on track.
And then the usual dinner with Lawrence M. Schoen and Valerie Green Schoen, Howard Tayler, Barbara Ferrer, and Gail Carriger at a place so good we turned around and made another reservation for Saturday night.
And then bar-time until we realized that we'd been awake since 5:30 and maybe it was time to fall over...
Today has another mix of social and work and social work, and then the Book View Cafe party! If you're at Sasquan, find me for more info!
