Word on the Street!
Word on the Street is a large book festival that took place today at Queen's Park. It's the 17th annual year this year. Anyways, there was a Writer's Guild of Canada booth and I was all like "Oooh, Jana Sinyor! Dark Oracle! Every other Canadian TV show I love!" But yeah, I knew that Jana and Heather were in an issue, so I kept that in mind as I approached the booth. And lo and behold, there were a few issues with them on it! I talked to a woman working there for a few minutes and told her that I love Dark Oracle and stuff, and she said "Here, help yourself!" So I have the issue! Yay! And now, the reason I actually went to the festival. (Other than the fact that I love books!) A few Degrassi cast members were going to be there for a discussion panel about the graphic novels coming in October! Cassie Steele, Jake Goldsbie, Stefan Brogren, Linda Schuyler and a couple of artists were there. Also, Ryan Cooley stopped by for a while because he had a class at university and he had to leave early. Anways, I took like 10 pictures them on stage, and got a picture of me inbetween Jake and Cassie. They gave out free 2005-2006 students planners, plus those little sample mangas of which I now have three, and a little purple card displaying the cover of the second novel. Anyways, Cassie and Jake both signed both of the books! Today was the best day ever! And yes, I say that every time something good happens to me... Which is not very often.
