I have several big events coming up. Next weekend is Herman Price's yearly Chestnut Ridge Typewriter Rendezvous in West Virginia. On October 27, I'll be in Auburn, California. And on November 3 there's a type-in at On Paper in Columbus, Ohio.
The Auburn event is happening at the Auburn State Theater, 985 Lincoln Way in Auburn (near Sacramento). It's the brainchild of Gary Moffat, who welcomes questions at gm50wpm@gmail.com—I guess he types 50 words per minute!
Starting at 4 pm, there will be an exhibit of over 50 vintage typewriters. You can try many of them, and possibly win one by participating in a typing test and a 10-word story contest. A few will be for sale.
At 6 pm, I'll be interviewed by Gary and local TV news anchor Edie Lambert.
The typosphere's favorite cult film, California Typewriter, follows at 7.
Tickets can be purchased here for $25.
Watch this brief video for Gary Moffat's personal invitation to the event:
And here is the Facebook page for the event.
I hope to meet some of my readers there!
Fun times - break a leg! (:
ReplyDeleteA month too late! I was in Sacramento the end of September. Hope you have a great time.
