I attended the Southern California Independent Booksellers Association trade show and Author's Feast, last Saturday.
I'll write more about it later, but in a nutshell - it really made me miss working with books, authors, bookselling and being a part of that world. I saw some old friends, scooped up some great books, made some wonderful connections.
And I realized that, come what may, I'm glad to be starting my freelance publicist business, working with a couple of local authors, learning as I go along, and staying in the wonderful world of books.
More about SCIBA later - right now, I have to dash out on an assignment for one of my clients, Starshine Roshell!

About Me
- Kate @ Great Books
- I live in beautiful Santa Barbara - it's been 15 years now. After nearly 21 years with Borders, I'm in a new job, a new career and a new life: I'm the Assistant Marketing Manager for Santa Barbara MTD - our public transit company! After years of retail, I'm learning about public transit, alternative transportation and working in the public sector. But I'm still reading, still working occasionally as a marketeer for writers, still a huge fan of authors and book-related events. I live in paradise, count on friends and family a great deal, and hit the beach when I can. But as always, I'd rather be reading.
