Hello All: I was out of town for two weeks in October, but hit the ground running when I returned home! There were a few fun book events on the calendar during November. Looking back it seems the month flew by. Here’s what kept me busy:
On November second, I participated along with several other local authors in a Meet the Authors community event. For me, this was the first event of its kind in over 18 months due to covid restrictions and it was nice to see it so well attended. The occasion marked my first public reading from Runaway, Book 1! It was great to see such a crowd and I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to speak to readers in person again instead of by email or social media.
Saturday, November 13th was the date of a local Craft & Gift Fair. The half-day event was great and although I didn’t read from one of the books in the City Streets series, I talked with dozens of mystery readers. I actually sold all my available copies of Veteran, Book 2! The level of interest in all three books was gratifying, but especially for Veteran, which was released in print this last spring and had not been offered at a live event before that day.
The Casa Grande Public Library sponsored an event highlighting the work of local published authors the evening November 17th. Libraries are the backbone of community literacy and these events are much appreciated. I was thrilled to read an excerpt from Gutter Punk, Book 3. A tip of the hat to Deanna Davis, Adult Services Manager at the library and the Friends of the Casa Grande Library for a lovely evening and for their support of local authors. Bravo!
And now, as another November comes to its end, off we head to a fun and festive December! Stay in touch by signing up for email updates about future events, reviews, offers and projects. Happy reading!
