lt's always cool seeing one's name on a big ol' board
Bookselling b the fabulous Charlie and Colleen of Charlie's Queer Books
The folks who made it all happen: Sarah, Maria, and Julie
Mega Cavell supplied the fabulous Old English riddle games and illustrations
It's a big stage, and the lights are bright...
We sold over 500 tickets
After Maria's lovely intro I spoke for about 45 minutes
I couldn't see the audience—I could have been speaking to an empty hall for I know—so I'm glad of these pictures
Maybe it's time I bought some brightly -coloured clothes...
Clearly people were engaged—but they were quiet, so, again, I couldn't tell...
So I was encouraged when people started to laugh
Then lots of applause when the keynote was done
then it was time for a serious question or two from Maria
And again people were quiet
But by then I was excited
And the audience was too
I demonstrate how hard it is to not Say The Swears
And now I'm rocking and rolling
And the audience—including my sweetie—is appreciative
I forget which question this was a response to
But by now I knew the audience was there 🙂
