Texas Book Festival 2019 Photos


Texas Book Festival, Austin Texas Capitol Grounds & Building. I personally got to listen to Scott Pelley of 60 Minutes and CBS NEWS discuss his new Book. He thanked me for my  stand up question about the relevance, pro's and con's of  Social Media in today's news world. His panel and talk was very sharp, funny, honest, virtue filled and intelligent. Scott Pelley is still going strong! 

I got a Book Festival Program Signature from Joe Nick Patoski, Author of Austin to ATX. The weather was wonderful, the covered tenant booths were friendly, and as usual the  Texas Book Festival was very awesome. There was an entire street, Congress Ave. devoted to kids and youths books. Hmm..Should I write a youth or kid book? Nah....

Some of the more Famous Authors speaking this year I was personally not able to witness but wished to were Malcolm Gladwell, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, John Grisham & General William McRaven.

This occurs usually in the 3rd trimester of a woman's pregnancy. To reiterate post-viable fetus, abortion should NOT be allowed. It's pretty simple. This line of thinking, is to determine if the early life can survive on its own,...
