Not only was it amazing to see and hear David Wroblewski last night, but I was thrilled to meet Nancy Pearl. You may not know who N.P. is, she is the model for the librarian action figure as the author of "Book Lust". It was such a fun night for two certified geeks. Of course I mean Me and Amy, not the two of them.
Listening to D.W. talk about the book and his process of writing it deepened the experience of reading it. I remember that a number of us commented on the strange idea that he had been a computer programmer before he wrote the book. He talked about the similarities between writing and programming in such a way that both now seem like artistic endeavors to me. Remarkable.
As soon as I figure out how to download the pictures from my phone, I'll post them.

P.S. He's much more handsome in person! And funny, and intelligent, and witty....
