Ken Barlow is only worth 2 quid including light refreshments? Wow!
He's flogging his book at a library. It should be FREE. I rarelypay to hear an author flog a book, especially at a public library...
Well, I hope he donates the proceeds to a charity. Can't imagine why they are charging a fee at a library signing.
Maybe just to cover the light refreshments but most always these stars charge an appearance fee and 2 dollars a head wouldn't come close to covering that. He must be doing it for free.
Ken barlow might get told to keep quit while in the library because the staff might keep saying Shhhhh Shhhhh to him everytime he tries to speak! Ha Ha!!
Will I need my library tickets to get his book?
He'll be doing it for free. Publishers include book signing obligations in their contracts with authors. (Many authors hate doing them). The fee will be for the refreshments.
