Outside Event #3

I went to see Lisa Patton at Davis Kidd Booksellers on Tuesday night. The atmosphere was nice. We were in the middle of the store, in a little spot with some chairs. Mrs. Lisa came around and introduced herself to the new comers and spoke to the others who have been to listen to her before. She read the prologue of her book. She brought the story to life. Each character of the short two page story had their own voice. Their own distinction. You could hear the emotion she gave to each character, how one was upset and scared, and the other was remorseful. It was really nice to listen to her, and the book seemed interesting. One lady asked if the novel was fiction, and she responded with "yes, mostly fiction, but most of the characters are based off true people." It was a very nice experience, especially seeing her friends in the audience who she talked about in the book. Everyone was so joyful. =]
