John Lamb the teddy bear man

Friday was kinda busy for me with docs appts and work. I worked a shift that night at Borders... kinda weird there were customers in the store, I had to interact, dress to code, I HAD TO WORK. Actually it was a good time. We had an author signing and I was really looking forward to meeting this teddy bear loving dude. I was expecting the guy to be a little on the feminine side... I was wrong, very wrong. He looked like and acted like a teddy bear Grandpa. He is a ex-interrogator, and negotiator. He was very down to earth, very cool to talk to. He asked me if I was an aspiring writer and I told him I'm writing a book about my son. He was impressed, not because I'm an aspiring writer but because I said I was writing, not I'm trying to write. He also told me that right now is a good time for non-fiction, people aren't buying that much fiction anymore. All in all I really liked the guy, I can't wait for him to come back, which he has promised he will do.
