I can't believe all the crazy stuff that happened today. William calls me 07 am to tell me he got me a press pass for the book fair, and that he would pick me up in 20 min, and he hoped I charged my camera. If not, I could borrow his Leica. I said thank you, ok, yes and yes!!! First we met up with Salman Rushdie, which he apperently considers a close friend. I felt like such a groupie, I've read all his books, and had a ton of questions. His reading of The Enchantress of Florence was breath-taking. From now on I'm going to read and enjoy his books in an entirely different way. I had no idea how impregnated his texts are with hidden humor and bitter sarcasm. He also signed my book, I felt like a geek, but now I treasure his writing even more.
Next up was the reading and signing of Super Model Vendela Kirebom's Fashion Bible. My god she is skinny!!! Anyways, She's not the sharpest pencil in the box, but smiled pretty and singed books, so I guess everyone was happy. William looked pretty happy next to her, he even got her to sign a book for Mom. Sneakyyyy!!! haha.
Well, enjoy your weekend! I allready opened a bottle of red wine. mmmmmmmm. I leave you with my face crushed in the copyer and a snapshot of the streetlights on my way home.
