On our way…
And who did we run into? Marc Silvestri? No. Someone much cuter. (You’re handsome too, Marc!)
It’s the talented Joie Brown!
What was cool is that Joe Hill was there, which Chuck was a big fan of. When I told him to go talk to him and grab a picture, Chuck was worried he’d make a fool of himself. (Remember when I posted about Fabian a few posts back – and having that same fear when I first saw Fabian – and regretting I didn’t speak to him?) So I said, “Screw it. I will go take a picture of him!” So I approached him and said, “Mine if I get a photo of you?” He said, “Do it!”
Then I said, “You know what… is it OK if I take a picture with you?”
And he said something like, “I thought it would be weird if you only took a picture of me. Get in here.”
He was absolutely amazing and great – such a fun sense of humor (which you wouldn’t think he’d have, being the son of Stephen King! You think it’d be all horror stories!) I told him my friend was a huge fan of his but super nervous to take a picture with him. He told me to go get him and drag him back to him. So I did.
I am so glad I did because Chuck was so happy after.
We both picked up his book and got it autographed.
And headed home…
