Budapest, Jack McDevitt, Destination Future signing

April and May was a blur, with work and getting ready for a trip. I've been reading LJ posts and commenting a bit, but didn't have energy to post.

In Budapest I've met one of my favorite authors, Jack McDevitt, at a week-long Book Festival. He was signing Hungarian translations of his novels at the Galaktika table. I have read all three novels, A

I've been wondering where you are! Did I know you were going away and forget? That would be...typical of me. o_0

I did not have time to blog before I left, so I don't think you knew. :)

I'm a bad blogger.

Wow, what a great trip... And in another coincidence, I subbed a stor to Galactika just about two hours ago!

So far it's been a nice trip. Indeed, it's a coincidence. Good luck with your story at Galaktika!

How wonderful that you have met Jack McDevitt. I've read a couple of his novels and liked them. Sounds like a nice trip; maybe next year we'll go to Europe.

[alaneer]

Yes it is, and I've found out about his signing on Facebook. I suppose FB is good for something.

Sounds like a wonderful trip!

So far it is, except for the 38 C heat one day and the 18 C the next.

Hope you're having great fun there!

I'm in the flat now because it's raining here. Yesterday there was a tornado in a village; it removed the roofs of 600 homes. Awful weather. It's 10:51 AM local time, in case you're interested :)

Ouch! Hope everyone in the village is okay. *sending good weather vibes*

[alaneer]

Yeah, I hope so too.
