I guess there's advantages to being never being able to remember an authors name. I just treat them as if they're regular folks because I don't recognise them.
Although.. it's kind of embarrassing when you're enthusing over this great book you just read.. only to be informed later that the person you were describing the plot of it to, actually wrote the darn thing! Apparently, Diane tells that story at every con now. It gets laughs every time.
I still kind of cringe though, but she was nice enough to say my theory as to what was going to happen in the next book was plausible and well reasoned. [wrong though, very wrong but I didn't know that.] But we had a fun talk, and she liked the homemade chocolate brownies.
