Alan Cheuse and Susan Gregg Gilmore
Illness kept me from the Virginia Festival of the Book this week-end. I was sick (pun intended) not to be a visitor at what so many authors consider one of the very best literary festivals in the country!
Susan Gregg Gilmore presented at the Festival. The highlight of the event for her came when she was in the audience of a panel made up of: Alan Cheuse, Michael Dirda, Louis Bayar and Bethanne Kelly Patrick. Ron Hogan was the moderator.
Alan Cheuse did a review of Looking for Salvation at the Dairy Queen, about a year ago. In his remarks on NPR he mentioned Lemon Meringue pie. Susan, a huge fan of Mr. Cheuse and very grateful for his attention to her book, has always wanted to give him one. She got her chance.
