Hello, on Thursday
November 17, 2016 I had the chance to attend the signing of Shannon Messenger
 |
| Fifth installment of KOTLC |
Shannon Messenger is the author of the Keeper of the Lost Cities series, and
the Sky Fall trilogy. The reason of
her visit to San Diego was the tour she is doing for the release of the fifth
installment of Keeper of the Lost Cities,
Lodestar. The event was supposed to start at 6:00 pm, but it started a few
minutes late. Messenger looked tired, and with a good reason, she flew from
Arizona straight to San Diego.
The first part of the event was a talk about the new
book, the author thanked the public for being there and talked about how
successful the series has become thanks to the fans, now Keeper of the Lost Cities is in the list of bestselling series of
the New York Times.
After the talk the event took the format of a Q&A
session, the public was really participative, and most of the participants were
kids (I felt so old), during the session Messenger said interesting things
about the series, how she became an author, what is like to be an author, and
some tips to aspiring authors.
