Last week I attended the 8th annual Jacksonville Film & Television Industry Reception. They set up a little booth for me where I sold and signed books. But the best part was the space. The event was held at PRI Productions. It was a skating rink in the 60s and now stores movie and themed event props (here’s a pic from the event). There were casino tables, slot machines, miniature Sphinx, giant sets of dice and all the best arcade games from the 80s: Donkey Kong, Galaga, Space Invaders, Pac Man. I got so caught up playing Donkey Kong that I actually missed a few people who had stopped by my table. But who cares? That damned gorilla kept killing me with flaming barrels. Blame him for poor book sales!
