Now, after two years at Borders? Well, at least I have two other daughters who might have kids someday... as long as they don't go to work in a bookstore any time soon....<BR/><BR/>Beth Fehlbaum, author<BR/>Courage in Patience, a story of hope for those who have endured abuse<BR/>http://courageinpatience.blogspot.com<BR/>Chapter 1 is online!Beth Fehlbaum, Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16401887157741943814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35406795.post-10880782287472551472008-04-27T18:47:00.000-06:002008-04-27T18:47:00.000-06:00Linduh here...I am cracking up over these comments...Linduh here...I am cracking up over these comments.

Some days I have to just shake my head...so I don't strangle someone. lol<BR/><BR/>Things I've heard while doing a signing, while dressed professionally and standing behind a table with a banner across the front that reads, "Meet bestselling author Cheryl Kaye Tardif".<BR/><BR/>*Can you tell me where to find the book: Political Warfare and Toxicology...blah..blah<BR/>(because I so obviously look like not only a bookstore employee but an intellectual...hmmmm)<BR/><BR/>*Where's the washroom?<BR/>(go outside, walk about 5 blocks, then pick a house...)<BR/><BR/>*What are you selling here?<BR/>(my book...? I'll throw in a free bookmark.)<BR/><BR/>*Can you give me a discount on this cookbook?<BR/>(do you have an iRewards card? If so, I'll give you 10% off.)<BR/><BR/>*Where's the bus terminal?<BR/>(Hmmm...I'm inside a mall...my guess is...OUTSIDE...?)<BR/><BR/>*What's your name?<BR/>(uh, let me check that big sign in front of my table.)<BR/><BR/>*Will the author be coming in to sign books?<BR/>(yup, she'll be here all day)<BR/><BR/>*Your sign is crooked.<BR/>(Thank you. Do you want a free bookmark to go with the book you're going to buy off my table?)<BR/><BR/>*Can you watch my bag for a few minutes?<BR/>(got anything interesting in there? Chocolate maybe?)<BR/><BR/>*Does your book have....you know...lots of...sex...in it?<BR/>(Not Whale Song, but my other two have enough to heat things up. Why, did you want more sex?)<BR/><BR/>*So Divine Intervention is about psychic government agents. Are you psychic?<BR/>(I knew you were going to ask me that.)<BR/><BR/>P.S. Thanks, Karen. I'm going to blog about this now...and I'll link to your blog for more, if you'll link to mine...hehehe<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.cherylktardif.com" REL="nofollow">Cheryl Kaye Tardif</A>,<BR/>bestselling author and patience expert :)Cheryl Tardifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15160526951596806898noreply@blogger.com
