Book Talks and Butterflies

I'm really looking forward to my author event at the Capitola Book Cafe on Thursday evening. I've gone to dozens of author talks at the Book Cafe, but never imagined I'd be participating in my own talk. Of course, I never imagined I'd ever write a novel either. So I guess my lesson here is to never say never and to stay open to new experiences and events. My author event begins at 7:30 p.m., so I imagine the butterflies will arrive in force by about 5 or so.
