The weather was horrible, we had to practically ice skate across the parking lot to reach the store, and fully expected the store to be closed when we arrived. However, people from Illinois are made of sturdy stuff and didn't seem to notice the ice storm. The store remained busy. We met many interesting readers - among them, a young man who plays piano in a rock band (and wears a scarf that looks like piano keys), a young lady who was shopping for mystery books for her aunt, and a very kind lady who was not shopping for mysteries but stopped to talk to us anyway.<BR/><BR/>Pages for All Ages is a GREAT store. The management, staff and customers are all wonderful and friendly. I highly recommend all authors check out this place as a potential site for book signings.Charlotte Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09336641340221491792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179114314622312316.post-10900420116637435582008-12-26T10:54:00.000-06:002008-12-26T10:54:00.000-06:00I hope you had a great book signing!I hope you had a great book signing!Jean Henry Meadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146960738692672013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179114314622312316.post-59063518187918659582008-12-22T17:43:00.000-06:002008-12-22T17:43:00.000-06:00Austin,February in Illinois, huh?
