   The party at the “Freemasons Temple” for Brad Meltzer and “The Book of Fate” was awesome. The place was incredible in terms of architecture and design, but that of course makes sense.
     The food was good and they had had wine but since Sarah and I aren’t drinkers we just had some bottled water. She got really excited over fresh figs and humus. I enjoyed some brie cheese and crackers.
     While there we got to see a Nascar car with two stickers on it for “The Book of Fate.” The car’s real-life driver or owner (I forget which) appears in the novel so he put two stickers on the car.
    Since I was considered “Press” I was allowed to walk all over the temple and take photos. I know I will NEVER get that chance again so using my professional camera I took two rolls with 36 pics on each roll. Of course I won’t develop them till next week so here are two digital ones to hold you over.
    The one above is the basic reception area from the party. The pink shirt guy near the bottom left is Brad.
    This second photo is of Sarah standing in this weird alter-thing that’s really hard to describe. Basically the place she is standing in is at the top of a big stairwell. When you stand at the bottom of the stairwell and look up, the alter-thing gives the allusion that there is a small building at the top (you can barely see it, but there is an outline of a building behind Sarah).
