Left to right are "moi," Brad Reed and Rachel Gaudetter, and Debbie Nellis. I have the Dubois Files mystery series for young readers, Brad and Rachel have a picture book featuring their photography called They Call Me Eagle Eyes, and Debbie has four picture books featuring a turtle named Max who tells people about things on Mackinac Istand. It was a nice selection.
The Center was disappointed because they had a number of people sign up who didn't show up. That also means they have a lot of food left over from the dinner to deal with. So it was a smallish group, but they were enthusiastic. Here Bill Kerans, the director of the center, is taking a picture of Brad and Rachel presenting their book.
This is Debbie and her husband, with her books.
The Senior Center gave each child a notebook, markers, and a pencil to help inspire them to be creative. Also, each family/kid got to choose one book from each author.
Afterwards, Debbie and I talked a while about the self-publishing business.
Other than that, I managed to walk about 1.5 miles before the dinner, and worked on various projects.

Sounds like a nice event. Too bad they had people not show up.
ReplyDeleteAnn- Yes, they were very disappointed
ReplyDeleteJava Bean: "Ayyy, that is a shame, people saying they're going to come and then not coming! But if they need somebody to take any extra food off their hands, just let us know ..."
ReplyDeleteBean- too bad you couldn't make it. I'm sure they had a ton of leftovers. 30 families signed up and 5 showed up.
