Oct. 8-14: 7-Day Author Forecast
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Here is your Seven-Day Author Forecast for the week of Oct. 8: All events subject to change.
Monday
Michelle Moran. “Nefertiti.” 7:15 p.m. at Decatur Library.
Tuesday
Jenna Bush. “Ana’s Story.” 7 p.m. at Barnes & Noble in Alpharetta. Come early; expect crowds. This is the true story of a 17-year-old single mother with HIV whom Bush met on a UNICEF trip in Central America. I talked with Bush on the phone (it will run in Tuesday’s blog) and I was very impressed with her.
Sandra Brown. “Play Dirty.” 7 p.m. at Margaret Mitchell House (reception at 6 p.m.). New thriller by the best-selling author mixes sex and pro football.
Rita Mae Brown. “The Tell-Tale Horse.” 7:30 p.m. at Borders Buckhead. Popular author’s sequel to her hunting novel, “The Hounds and the Fury.”
Thursday
Egil “Bud” Krogh. “Integrity.” 7 p.m. at the Jimmy Carter Library. Sponsored by the Georgia Center for the Book. This sounds intriguing. Krogh served in the Nixon White House during Watergate and was one of Nixon’s loyal minions, if memory serves. Now he’s written a book called “Integrity” and is signing at the Carter Library. Hmmm.
Toni McGee Causey. “Bobby Faye’s Very Very Very Very Bad Day.” 7:30 p.m. at Wordsmith Books, Decatur. The folks at Wordsmith are pushing this offbeat first novel out of Louisiana, which they call a “trailer trash mystery thriller.” Gotta check that out.
Saturday
Carol O’Dell. “Mothering Mother: A Daughter’s Humorous and Heartbreaking Memoir.” Barnes & Noble Snellville. True account from the so-called “sandwich generation:” middle-agers caught dealing with aging parents and their own kids.
Tina Brooks McKinney. “Lawd, Mo’ Drama.” 7:30 p.m. at Wordsmith Books, Decatur.
