"Cormac Brown" is my pen name. I'm an up-and-slumming writer in the city of Saint Francis and I'm following in the footsteps of Hammett...minus the TB and working for the Pinkerton Agency. A couple of stories that I've stiched and stapled together, can be found here.
And please, ignore that disrespectful idiot who wouldn't honor Michael Connelly or the video camera, and kept taping and wrapping packages! May you get a particularly painful paper cut that becomes mildly infected!
First, great interview. Second, I commend both you and the author on keeping your decorum throughout.
Still, that was Michael Connelly...
...Michael F-in' Connelly! Even if the clerk was some cozy-loving hack, he should've at least realized that an interview was going on and acquiesced, but he did that to Michael Connelly!
If that happens again with another troglodyte or hater, please explain to him politely that you are conducting an interview that will not only benefit an audience of various readers, but also the store he is working in with even more sales.
If that fails, give him money for a latte and tell him to get lost.
If he takes the money and keeps on doing that, explain to him that you are going recreate scenes from any number of horror movies using that packing tape, that would make Wes Craven and Dario Argento to blanch.

I'll ditto you on the guy wrapping packages. I basically told him to suck it after me and Mike were finished up.
