NickDG 23 #1 August 1, 2008 When I lived in downtown San Diego I sometimes used to go to local bookstores when they had an author coming in to talk about their books. These were mostly unknowns doing a first book and I enjoyed hearing about the process. Now I live further north and closer to Hollywood and the local bookstore here attracts mostly celebrities and actor types. I'm not the type to be gaga over movie stars so I never go but tonight I went, I couldn't help it, tonight it was Adrienne Barbeau . . . She talked about her book, a novel about Hollywood Vampires, and her movies like "The Fog" and "Escape from New York." It was an intimate group just her and about twenty of us book buyers and we all had a nice chit chat. I asked her to say it and she looked me right in the eye, and said, "Snake Plissken, I heard you were dead." I'm still weak in the knees. She's as beautiful as ever and I guess I can get gaga over some movie stars . . . NickD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Jumpervint 0 #2 August 1, 2008 That's awesome.
