As Senate Intelligence Counsel, Raffel held a top secret clearance to watch over CIA activities.

We are quite excited about this year’s fair. If you are not an author, be sure to drop by from 10 to 4 to chat with authors, and of course, buy their wares and get their books signed. We’d love your help working at the Writers Forum table and/or relieving the authors as needed.  Leave a comment with your name and phone number if you’re interested in helping out for an hour or so.  This will be a great gift buying opportunity before the holidays.
