James Bradley and Meg Mundell Sunset Salon – April 6th, 2006
James Bradley spoke brilliantly to a full Sunset Salon on, well, pretty much everything to do with writing.
And Meg Mundell played the perfect host in leading the discussion.
Lou took this picture and thinks it says it all.
The audience were some of the nicest we'd met.
And so well behaved!
