Dad left today for home. Now I'm in Toronto by myself.
I spent the day reading The Perilous Trade by Roy MacSkimming, a history of the Canadian Book Publishing industry. It's the book for my history class tomorrow. The classes for my Creative Book Publishing Course are 9-5, Monday to Friday. Finally, I finished it, right after concluding a Dungeons and Dragons game via Skype. Got a chance to use my new headset that way.
Now I'm working on The Disappeared, by Kim Echlin. She's a Canadian author that came to speak to us on Friday. We got to choose a free copy of one of her three books, and she signed every one. Everyone copied down the titles of her other books, eager to rush out to the library or bookstore to acquire a copy. Meeting the author really does sell books. Or, makes you eager to read them at least.
I'm going to make time every day to read a bit of fiction. With my hectic schedule, I'm going to need it.
