I got to hear some short stories read by their authors this past Saturday. A Dayton publisher, Alliteration Ink, and a Centerville retailer, Epic Loot, brought some area authors (and their editor) together for a two-hour event in Centerville to read from Sidekicks!
Buy Sidekicks!
I took several photos at the event, as each author and the editor read a story, and enjoyed the material enough that I bought a copy right there (cover price!) in order to get it signed. I was expecting all of the stories to be about super-powered heroes, but they were not: post-apocalyptic, fantasy, supers, and crime humor were all represented in the stories presented, and I’m sure there are more awaiting me in the reading.
But on to the gallery! (All photos below I release under CC-BY-3.0)
