Day 10 of the Tour

7:00 PM – Waldenbooks 1051 Marley Station 7900 Ritchie Hwy Glen Burnie, MD 21061!

Wow! Amazing! 300 people in a mall store, with no event space and no Q & A. There was some concern that Laurell would need to cut off the line. But once Laurell assured the District Manager that everyone who stood in line would get a book signed. Once this was clear, Kim, the district manager, walked the line, making sure that everyone knew that if they waited, they would get their books signed.

We got to see Heather again, which was good, as between signing at this store, she was involved in a horrendous car accident. Her injuries, though serious, have mostly healed, and she is going through physical therapy to get back to where she was. We were glad to see her and her fiancee.

We also had a group of fans who dressed up as Anita in jeans, and another Anita in Jean-Claude party dress. There was also a full makeup zombie and a Jean-Claude. There was also a little girl dressed as Valentina, but she was more interested in getting something to eat than in the signing. These were very cool costumes.

The store arranged to have the mall proper stay open so that every one who was in line when all the stores closed would not be trapped and could stay in line.

Big thanks to all the staff, of both the store and of the mall who helped to make this a great event.
