I went to see Junot Diaz yesterday and let me tell you guys something, he is no ordinary author who bores you with their advance vocabulary. He knew how to grab the audience attention which surprised me because I thought he was just going to talk nonstop about writing or himself. But he proved me wrong.
Junot came on stage and spoke a bit and then read one his short stories called, Alma. Then he went to questions and answer discussion. Finally, he read a part from The Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. Who ever didn't go, you missed out. His words were inspiring.
