Greetings . . . I'm the newbie!

It's been my experience that signings, even in popular places, are a very iffy thing. You simply can't tell if it's going to be a success or a painful experience you hope to soon forget. While it's tempting to try and shake things up and do something different, I think the best bet to hold a signing is still the local bookstore (of course, that's just my humble opinion)!

Cheers,

Greetings, everyone . . . I'm a newbie!

Bill Bryson's "Notes From a Small Island" and HST's "Hell's Angels" rank as two of my favorite works of creative nonfiction (with many more titles on the list, including the various works of Jon Krakauer). Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself!

Cheers,
