This was my 7th Miami Book Fair. It’s getting to feels like it would not be November without attending the Fair. There’s something nice about wearing sandals one last time while zipping from author event to author event. This was the first time we saw any rain at the Fair, but given the whacky weather I have experienced all year this year, I was not surprised. There even was snow in Miami, but you will have to read on to see why THAT happened when temps were in the 70s.
