"I have made my living as a librarian (I took off a couple of years off, to tour with a children's theatre - it was a gloriously free, and disorganized life, but eventually, I had no money at all). I love the theatre...and I became a playwright - my plays have been produced in professional theatres all over the country."
"As a writer, I do a lot of complaining. People often ask why I write, when I hate it so much. I answer, that I write because I am under a curse. I keep meaning to give up writing, but I haven't got around to it yet."
12:30-1:45: Book signing and a complimentary lunch sponsored by Penguin Publishing. If you'll be joining us for lunch please add the words "LUNCH" in the comments field when you RSVP.
2:00: Tour of the Baker & Taylor distribution center. See how materials are organized, picked, processed, and shipped to you after you've ordered them.
