R. A. Salvatore Signing at the World's Biggest Bookstore, part 2

As promised, here are more videos for your enjoyment. Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone!

This isn't advice most aspiring authors will want to hear, but it's better to know what you're in for if you want to be a career writer.



I missed recording the question on this one. Salvatore's basically explaining that racism in books (where are are distinctly different races) is different from racism among humans.

A longer video, Salvatore touches on several things - how the internet has changed, how he used to feel about criticism and what helps him ignore critics now.

He really is a great public speaker and a friendly guy. If he's coming to a city near you, go see him.
