Local Yokel

This month, the San Diego Public Library will host the 46th annual Local Author's exhibit. And last night they held the exhibit reception and local author awards ceremony. The exhibit is limited to books published in 2011. Local authors are greeted, treated to some drinks and food, and then each presented with a nice medal on a blue ribbon.

One of the local authors was, of course, Eric Shanower, whose adaptation of L. Frank Baum's Ozma of Oz from Marvel Comics was prominently on display. Eric looks quite pleased, doesn't he!
