To have something on this scale, an author
of this magnitude, is really really exciting for the city.
I was thinking "Mom, Dad, we're gonna go!"
I was extremely excited because I just never thought this would be an opportunity I would get to have.
I think that's amazing.
Any time you can connect people with other people.
It's one thing to read an author, it's another
thing to hear life from their point of view.
It's always interesting to hear like what
they think about things.
How they feel about their writing, how they
relate to their writing.
And it's always cool to see other people who
also enjoy the same authors that you enjoy.
You know, it's one thing to have an event
at a bookstore where the expectation is that
you show up and drop twenty-five bucks on
the book.
It's another thing to say "these thinkers
are going to be here with us, and going to
talk about their work."
You know a lot of readers are also going to
be writers as well.
And it's always good to know about our favorite
authors and what their process is.
As well as knowing about them.
So I want to get more info about the movies
and the books they write.
I really want to learn more about that.
