To market, to market, to sell some fine books

Today's mass signing in Poughkeepsie went well, despite Barbara Campbell's mysterious unfortunate absence. The local SF/F writers group showed up en masse, and I discovered a soulmate in Cassie, who shares my admiration for Optimus Prime and a love of forensics.

Store manager Mike Jensen and his staff were great. Traffic in the store was light, in part due to the beautiful weather outside, but we each sold enough books to qualify as a success. All in all a good day, but I'm glad to be home.
