quiet little stories recap

Hey everyone!
Just got back from D.C. last night. The quiet little stories show was great. I would like to thank everyone that came out and checked it out, especially the folks who got into the interactive part of the show and shared their ideas. I think everyone really enjoyed going around and seeing what everyone was writing. You can see some pics and videos HERE
