Margaret Atwood: Jan. 10/18

.

Chapter's Thunder Bay won a contest involving increasing their sales of The Handmaid's Tale. The prize was an appearance by Margaret Atwood. She was interviewed by Lisa Laco, took some questions, and then spent hours autographing books.

The whole thing was well organized. Everyone was put into a group (of 50?) depending on when you arrived. I arrived c. 1730h for a 1900h start. I was in Group #6 (out of 10)!!. I think it was c. 2230h when I got my autograph.

I tripped up the step, and Margaret expressed some concern. I told her that my friend Tim said hi (as he had asked me to).

Stef the enthusiastic MC

It seemed that Gwyneth Paltrow was taking the pics for us.
