I was invited to speak at the Scuba Sports Club of Westchester last night. I was truly surprised to find a likable group who openly embraced an author who was trying to seel them a book.  :-) They are a garrulous pack of passionate scuba divers who were willing to let a stranger speak at their monthly meeting. In short time we found humor to be a common denominator and the rest was easy.  A few short stories, jokes and beers and I was like family. After my short, self serving speech I was nearly trampled as the club members rushed for an autographed copy of Barracuda. The club even paid for my dinner and beer.  My Author Den friends, it doesn't get any better than this.  :-)
