It was only two hours and before the event I got to spend some time going around the room to meet other authors who were also already set-up. There were all types of books being represented &#8212; many were political or historical, but I was the only cartoonist. The Upstart Crow Podcast was able to gather short interviews there. There was a raffle giveaway of two $50 Visa gift cards and free face painting. I also displayed my Fairfax County Library card design. Someone told me this particular location said they were sold out of my design &#8212; a few people wanted to get it and were unable to. Maybe other locations still might have my design, but you&#8217;d have to ask around because FCPL has 23 branches!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This past Saturday was the Author Book Festival at Pohick Regional Library.
