Authorial behaviour

Anne Rice made an appearance at my Chapters on Saturday. I wasn't working, but I did want to go down there. However, I didn't want to see her enough to miss my yoga class and stew making.

Apparently, she used to come in to her events in a coffin. But now she has found God, and has recently started writing the biography of Christ. According to the reports, she was quite quiet and looked rather angry at the end of her presentation. She did not do a reading and only signed books. She requested mixed nuts in her contract. These mixed nuts were all consumed by her assistant, who also managed to steal all of the fancy pens that we bought for Anne Rice to use to sign with.

Jack Whyte and Vikram Seth have both come into Raincoast. I wasn't there when Mr. Seth was there, and Mr.Whyte just came in, signed a few things and left. Apparently Vikram Seth is quite charming, and chattered away while he signed about 300 copies of his book.
