Fireside Chat: n. The fireside chats were a series of thirty evening radio addresses given by United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt between 1933 and 1944...."fireside chats" were the first media development that facilitated intimate and direct communication between the president and the citizens of the United States. Roosevelt's cheery voice and demeanor played him into the favor of citizens and he soon became one of the most popular presidents ever, often affectionately compared to Abraham Lincoln.

Hiya everyone! I was thrilled to meet Adi Rule, author of Strange Sweet Song yesterday at the local library. Adi was soooo nice and friendly :-) I, along with some other fellow readers, were lucky enough to pick at Adi's brain for a good hour or so and ask any questions we wanted. We talked about a huge variety of topics, ranging from the steps it takes to get a book published to Adi's cat named Scooter.
I've organized this posts into sections discussing different topics for ease of reading.
My Impression of Adi Rule
Adi was such a sweet and friendly person! She didn't mind answering questions and was very funny. She answered each question very earnestly and didn't mind us asking some strange questions either :-) Plus, she also has a good narrator voice (she read a few chapters from her book out loud.)
