I'm so sorry. At first I was confused why someone would go to a reading where they obviously hadn't read the book, and start antagonizing the author. Then I remembered that she almost fell off her chair when she tried to sit down, and it occurred to me that she was probably drunk. It's definitely bizarre, but drunk people have a different "logic". I am still in awe of your grace in dealing with her. I still gave her enough stink-eye for both of us. Apparently, I'm not all that gracious myself.
Yeah, that’s her. She was mean and has been living in my head more than she deserves.
