Has anybody ever felt sorry for these authors at book signings? Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 13/12/2010 09:59:18 PM
I went to Borders this past weekend and they had a table set up for some author. I walked by several times and the guy looked really bored. He was idly tapping the table and the woman next to him looked utterly miserable. I didn't see one person walk up to them. But it really doesn't help when your book is about leadership and hiring. I humored the guy though.

Have you ever felt sorry for an author at a book signing?
