the big read

That's me with super mega bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey. At Ebony's urging, he bought one of my books and sat through our entire presentation. He also gave me some advice on how to handle all this marketing side of the business. One of the nicest guys I've ever met.

Shark Fu of AngryBlackBitch also showed up. That was so incredibly nice of her. Her writing on her blog is so strong that I had imagined she would be eight feet tall.

And my grandma and Uncle Evan drove in all the way from Indiana. Too short a visit, but I was so thrilled to have them both there.

And, of course, there were the real stars of the show, Coach Jane Rinehart, Marcus Leach and Ebony Rose.

I'm too tired to go into details right now. Plus, I've agreed to write a blow-by-blow for About.com.

Here are some more pictures.
