Brain dead and exhausted, so won't do more than a drive by post.
But it was a nice day. Good to see some old friends, and to meet in person some online friends, and to meet some new people, sometimes introduced by someone, sometimes through the most random situations. But that's what's so wonderful about throwing 7000 people passionate about books and writing in the same space for a few days: these sort of conversations and connections can happen.
There really is a great sense of community.
And people seem to like the little A Midsummer Night's Press bookses, which is also nice.
:-)
I'm sharing a table with Tachyon, so people come by for them, too, and there's often some good synergy between the two presses.
And as usual I have backlist titles by many of A Midsummer Night's Press' authors, and people seem to appreciate that as well.
But it's a LONG day working the bookfair from 8:30am-5:30pm.
And tomorrow again.
No energy for the after-fair socializing and all. I am going to collapse now.

(Did you get my mail about if you wanted a review copy of our first translated title? Send me an email if so with an addy, and I'll send it off before I go to Madrid again on Wed.)
