Blurb 4: Jessica Bendinger at BORDERS

Jessica Bendinger at BORDERS

This is from an appearance made by screenwriter and novelist Jessica Bendinger at the Columbus Circle BORDERS. Jessica Bendinger is the co-writer and creative consultant of Sex and the City, the writer of Aquamarine, First Daughter, The Truth About Charlie, producer of Bring It On, director of Stick It among many others. She talked about her newly released book “The Seven Rays,” reads an excerpt from it and later on signs copies. Although I am not a big fan of the genre she is associated, it was quite fascinating seeing her. What I learned from this experience is that behind these extraordinary and phenomenal people that the whole world knows are people as ordinary and down-to-earth as us. Perhaps it was the first time I have met such an upscale writer, when the writing world means so much to me

I just got a gift card to Borders so hopefully I’ll be able to catch some speakers myself

Borders is one of my favorite places! I love to read there and also Columbus Circle is a fantastic place in general. Maybe you can list this as a “Word” event or place to go under the Wiki page!

Although you may not be a fan of hers, it’s great that you got to meet such a writer because I know you like to write. Did you get a chance to talk to her, or get her autograph?

That is a good suggestion Philip.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get an autograph, but I did say hi to her.

Muhammad I liked that the video was basically all of her. I felt like I was at borders with you at the moment. I know you said that it was your first time meeting such an upscale writer, but just remember that you don’t need to have published books or be presented at Borders to be a great writer or famous. I certainly enjoy hearing your pieces and a lot of the other pieces read in class from other classmates. How about you let me get your autograph now my dude, just in case you become famous yourself?
