Two Great Author Events

Yesterday and today, I was at two unusual author events.

Last night, it was baseball at the Epicenter Stadium in Rancho Cucamonga, home of the Quakes minor league baseball. Author Eric Stone put together a slew of authors (pictured left. Who's that green guy in the middle?) for a "Writer's Cafe" where books were sold and authors sat at individual tables waiting to chat with readers. And watch a little baseball, too. Free hotdogs and dollar beer for the starving writers. I think we sold a few books, watched a bit of the game, and enjoyed some fireworks, too boot.

And today, I was in Temecula on the site of the old Vail Ranch (which is now mostly the Redhawk community and shopping centers) in the big Red History Barn. Another slew of authors (from when I belonged to a local critique group) got together to sell their books. A decent weekend for book sales.
