Rob and another author at the Strathmore. Cr: Jeffrey Johnson |
"Afternoon Tea" at the Strathmore Mansion in Bethesda,Maryland. I met interesting authors of fascinating books that covered fiction, historic fiction, poetry, recipes and treatment for Autism and ADHD.
We each had 10 minutes to talk about ourselves and our books. Some did readings from their books and it was obvious there was a lot of talent in the room. I introduced myself as something completely different, since I'm a medium/paranormal investigator and scientist. I gave a quick overview of the science of energy and it's direct relevance to the afterlife, and mentioned ghosts, spirits, people and pets.
I met many people who have also had experiences of their own, too. Some had experiences with human ghosts, others with spirits and some with those of pets.

AN AUTHOR TO CHECK OUT - One of the authors that I had the good fortune to sit next to was Jeffrey Johnson of Virginia. He wrote a novel called "The Hunger Artist" that was a People's Choice Award Finalist. He was awarded the Andrew Lytle Fiction Prize by The Sewanee Review. He read a couple of pages from the beginning of the novel about two of the main characters and it was captivating. To see his book on Amazon.com, click here.
