At it Again: Yet Another Post-Signing Report. Resurrected Post.
I enjoyed another signing recently. And I mean enjoyed; beer featured prominently.The accommodating publicans at Journeys Pub, Bob and Shannon, offered to host a signing of ���Reunion.��� Not only did they offer the venue, they advertised the event and held all night happy hour. So, to all those who enjoyed the discount on beverages, ���You���re welcome.���
A pub provides a different atmosphere for a signing than does a bookstore. Not an improper or unpleasant atmosphere, just different. The sale of books is not the primary purpose of the establishment. Most of the people there are present to consume food and drink. They aren���t thinking foremost about books. But a pub is a convivial place, and what better topic of conversation than books? Especially when you just so happen to have some for sale.
I had a chance to chat with several people, savored a pint of a pretty decent red ale, and sold some copies of my novel. Not a shabby evening, by any stretch. In fact, I���m wondering if there are any other Portland area pubs interested in having me monopolize a table and peddle my papery wares. Drop me an email, I don���t take up much space.
