    I missed it this year I was a day late and a dollar short, but I will be looking forward to attending next year with my daughter who lives in Oceanside. Thank You Victo for such marvelous Gifts you’ve given us. I first read Víctor Villaseñor’s book Rain of Gold in English for my Reading 110 class at Palomar College I could not put it down, me the one who hated to read as a little girl, a teenager, and a young lady, now a middle aged woman with a book in her hand 24*7 until I finish it. I wrote my book reports on Rain of Gold and Walking Stars and I received an “A” in the Class thanks Victor Villaseñors fabulous books. This semester I reread Lluvia de Oro for my Spanish IV class, I enjoyed the book even more en español and all I have to do now is write my essay for my final and I will be finished for this semester, but not with reading I have really enjoyed his books and was hopping to find out if Victor has any type of appearances in the North County area I would Love to maybe get a signed copy of Rain of Gold the book that I believe that anyone with a drop of immigrant blood should read and the one who made me fall in Love with reading.

    Best Regards,
    Audry Gonzalez-Juarez

    • lindavillasenor

      Hi Audry – yes, please mark your calendar for next year’s SG event! It’s always the Sunday before Thanksgiving. So happy you’re loving Lluvia. Victor doesn’t have any local events coming up; you can send him your book to autograph. Mail it to 1302 Stewart St., Oceanside, CA 92054 and include a note and an addressed, stamped return box/envelope.

    Hello, Will there be Snowgoose event this year?
    Our family would like to travel from Arizona if there will be one.

    • lindavillasenor

      Yes, and it would be wonderful to meet you. SG is always the Sunday before Thanksgiving. I notice that the date for 2013 hasn’t been changed at the web site. I’ll let Gary G know to take care of that. All of the rest of the information is correct.
