July Hadley Rille Books Event, Reno

Yep, the local bookstore posted our Hadley Rille Books signing event on their calendar, so our signing/reading is on!  Check it out on the events posted (scroll down to July 2nd) at the Sundance Bookstore site, here in Reno.

And yep, still HIGHLY intimidated by the reading part of it...

Pshaw. Reading's the fun part. You'll do great.

Well, I was just as nervous with the signing in April...

Thing is, I LIVE here!

Good luck with it!

Good luck to you! I wish I could be there.

Thanks! I'm hoping others can make it. We have 3 authors, with possibly a couple others. The store left it vague as to how many, with saying "other local authors" instead of names.

You will be MARVELOUS at the reading part! Maybe see you there?

I'm hoping...Floyd will make it. Mary Ellen Martin who has a tale in Barren Worlds (Eric sez it WILL be out then!) will be there. The more the merrier!

You'll be fine! I'm terribly terribly shy, and I've managed survive nearly a dozen readings in the last four years and never once I have puked on an audience member.

Speak clearly, read a slow but comfortable pace, and look up. I make notes on the pages of whatever I'm reading to remind myself of these things.

Maybe I'll suggest Shuffle-The-Story and read someone else's!

Dunno if I'd be less nervous though.

Yeah, I'm not coming if I have to read! I'll read someone else's stuff, but not mine!

We can swap stories! I already posted somewhere that maybe we can do the story-read shuffle...

Don't sweat it. You'll be great!

[identity profile] will-couvillier.livejournal.com 2008-06-03 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
If enough people can come, we might only have to read teasers!

"We have to read?" she said in a squeaky voice! I am so excited! I really hope my plane has no delays, and I make it on time! I'll link everything up on my blog. Can't wait to meet you in person!

[identity profile] will-couvillier.livejournal.com 2008-06-03 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
And heck, Eric even sez he's working hard to make sure you have a book to read from!

[identity profile] mehub.livejournal.com 2008-06-03 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I hope so! You REALLY don't want to count on me to just stand around and look "pretty"! :)
