Remembering Harry: Jim Dale Reading

Here’s Jim Dale reading at the Union Square Barnes & Noble Book Seven release party this past July.

Terry Pratchett at Union Square Barnes & Noble

Just discovered that many of the authors who come to the Union Square Barnes & Noble are video taped and you can watched them on the web. I heard Terry Prachett there a few years back and he was wonderful. This time round I wasn’t able to go (mostly because I would have had to get there hours early, no doubt, to get in) and so was delighted to discover that you can see it all right here.
