Top Ten Tuesday: Memorable Author Events

Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week the theme is Thanksgiving/Thankful and when I saw that Marg at the Intrepid Reader had done author events she was thankful for, I decided to emulate her. I’ve been to quite a few author events but perhaps these are the most memorable:

It's awesome, baby!

How suitable for Dickie V to return tonight at 9! I love the fact that he went to the same throat specialist at Julie Andrews and Steve Tyler - the latter of whom I met during the publishing event of Walk This Way. That book is what used to be called a Lou Aronica special, in that it cost a million dollars, not inclusive of marketing and promotion.

My very first Duke-Carolina game was the last game played in Carmichael Auditorium in the 85-86 season when the two teams were ranked 1 and 2 in the country. This year (annoyingly) Memphis is unbeaten and thus ranked 1 (one can only imagine whether Coach Cal's notorious players actually go to class or will be there next year). Still, there is no doubt that everyone would prefer to see this game.
