I attended the Los Angeles Festival of Books today at the UCLA campus and I saw Ray Bradbury's presentation this afternoon. I would say "Farenheti 451" had a great impact on me, its one of my favorite novels, and this afternoon seeing Bradbury in person was such a treat. He did not read any of his work but instead talked more about influcences, things that influcenced his writing and his experiances early on as a writer. As a unpublished writer myself I found his stories insightful and entertaining. I was throughly impressed with him this afternoon, and experiance I will not soon forget.
