I Just Left the Room

After a seminar today; I shook a few hands and walked out.  I'm nobody, but I tell them my name and make small talk.  I open the door and walk out.  I hear someone say my name, once the door is closed.  So, I turn around and reach for the handle to see who was calling me.  I stop, no one was calling me, but they were talking about me.  I listen.

"That was Nicholas.  Keep an eye on him.  You'll be seeing his work soon.  Did you meet him?" said someone.

"Yeah, he said he's read one of my books," said another person.

That was all I heard.  It was pretty interesting to hear someone talking about me without the words "asshole" in the sentence.  I've been hearing a lot of good things these past few months.  I hope I'm not kidding myself with this writing thing.
