Yes! This is an honor...

George RR Martin, who owns the JEAN COCTEAU Theater in Santa Fe, NM, will graciously allow me (after my appearance there, where I read an excerpt of my sic-fi novel to a live audience...) to leave several signed copies of my books on a shelf among his highly priced collection of world- famous fictional works, so that I may have an alternative outlet for getting 'LISA BENNETT VISITS UTOPIA' out to the public.

I thank him from the bottom of my heart, as this is an honor indeed, to even be mentioned in the same breath
with his venerable name, let along have the spine of my humble little book rub up against one of his big, fat
'ICE & FIRE' sagas!

The creator of 'GAME OF THRONES' is kindly acknowledging the creative community of Santa Fe, even giving out grants to aspiring fantasy writers, helping wolves, creating charitable and educational events within the community and I just adore the man! He got a deep-throated chuckle out of my appearance on stage as the mother of Deanarys Targaryan, who trained a rather difficult to tame three-headed dragon.
