Well, that felt good...
I just got back from doing a lunchtime talk at the Georgetown Senior Center. Honestly, I didn't know what to expect. I had lunch with the folks there and then we all sat in a circle and I talked about the book. I started out by talking a bit about graphic novels and how they're not just superheroes and Archie anymore and then went into the genesis of the project. That was about ten minutes. I then spent about fifty minutes talking about the cards in my collection and we had great little discussions, plenty of laughs - it was a really fun time and everyone there was engaging and taking part in the discussions.
I was also encouraged to try to take my talk to Oprah, The Today Show, various NPR programs, and the Smithsonian. I'll get on that...
