What fun!<br /><br />My best gift suggestion for an author? A massage.

The booksellers tell me they love to suggest an autographed book to someone who's undecided.<br /><br />One year at a our annual CA Writers club holiday party, the most popular Secret Santa gift was two reams of paper. Authors fought each other to get to be the one to take those home.
