Woke up, put on clothes, didn't go to work. Went to Freehold to participate in a Barnes & Noble discussion on my book. It was nice to be back among the farms. New Jersey IS beautiful, no matter what they say.

What's weird as a writer is hearing someone praise or quote a passage of the book that you think needs more work or is flawed. You smile on the outside, cringe on the inside. Anyway, it was a nice discussion, and there was even participation from longtime family friends.
