The Most Excellent Christopher Moore

Posted by admin on April 26, 2010 in Other Writing |

Last week, I attended my first book signing. I’d always hoped my own would be the first, but barring that, this man was at the top of the list of who I’d see. So I did. Before meeting him in Waterloo at his book signing, I’d already formed an opinion of him: He was a people person, an author who kept his fingers on the on the pulse of his own stardom through interaction with his fans. I heard from a few people at the signing that they’d written to him and he’d actually written back–more than once.

After seeing him I’m happy to report that he is every bit the gentleman he is said to be. He’s also a very personable public speaker. I have no idea what it takes to smile for more than three-hundred photos in a row, but he did–and it was the same grin you’d see on the back jacket of any one of his twelve fantastic novels (I even liked the first one, which is more than I can say for most authors).

More later.
