April 18, 2009 - Borders Stonecrest "Outcast" Book Event


The Borders Bookstore at Stonecrest Mall in Lithonia, GA requested an appearance to raise awareness for the newly released Star Wars book called "Fate of the Jedi: Outcast". Sadly this was a not a book signing event with the author Aaron Allston, one of my absolute favorite Star Wars authors. His Wraith Squadron books, part of the X-Wing series are superb and so much fun. He is an extremely funny writer and his books are what old school Star Wars is all about.


Aaron recently suffered a massive heart attack on his current book tour and had to undergo quadrouple bypass surgery. He is fine and recovering nicely and in some small way this event was our way of sending out good vibes for a speedy recovery.


We don't often troop in the Stonecrest area and it was fun to see the reactions from the public spending the Saturday afternoon shopping.


We patrolled the store entrance posing for lots of photos and telling everyone who would listen about the new book.

And 2 of Atlanta's finest even wanted to pose for photos with us!

A great day and we sold a few books too.
