Vanity on NPR

I was at the LA Times Festival of Books and when I walked by the the vanity tents I saw no one there. The piece is another of the man/woman writes book variety just like the sort that makes local papers. They never actually review one of these books as reported in the story. What I remember is John Dean signing books alone at the end of a long day since his panel was at 11:30 a.m. It's discouraging that the reporter had a copy of her book with her that she most likely bought herself. That's the reality of it.
