I Claudio: Jeyn Roberts Book Tour Review
http://iclaudio2000.blogspot.com/2012/03/jeyn-roberts-book-tour-review.html
A review of Author Readings and Events in Seattle. Monday, March 26, 2012. Jeyn Roberts Book Tour Review. I quietly wait at Third Place Books. To meet with my other author friends and exchange ideas and critique each other’s work. At 6:45 the usual call goes out announcing that an author is reading in the small stage, but I don’t go having made other plans. My friends are late so I wait: when at 7:03 I hear a sound so sickening that I can’t believe my ears. And that my dear readers is a bad sign. Still t...

A review of Author Readings and Events in Seattle. Saturday, November 20, 2010. Brandon Sanderson Book Tour Review. Http:/ www.brandonsanderson.com/. This was an oversight on my part not posting this earlier. Reading date was Sep 14 2010. Never been personally attracted to Fantasy literature but this blog is not about the genre. It’s about the author, how they present their product and are they worth going to see. Sometimes I’m not so bright. This “some guy” turned out to draw the biggest cro...The size ...

A review of Author Readings and Events in Seattle. Sunday, January 15, 2012. Return of the Tiger Mom. Amy Chua's Book Tour Review: "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother". January 13, 2012. Let’s start by being impressed Amy Chua came back; not to Seattle but to the author tour circuit. After a year removed from the release of her memoir, Battle Hyme of the Tiger Mother.
