I love festivals and am excited to be invited to attend one this Saturday, May 18th in Carthage, Texas at the Still Waters Cowboy Church. It's the annual Western Heritage Festival and it runs from 9-4. I'll be under a tent sharing news of my upcoming release, the third in the series of the Velvet Shoe Collection. Two of my books are out, An Unlikely Arrangement and An Unlikely Beginning. These stories are based on a true story set in the 1920's. If you like your romance with a large dose of intrigue, you'll like my books.

The reason I go to festivals is to connect with my fan base and meet new people. I'm always excited to tell about my books person to person.

If you are in the area Saturday, I hope to see YOU there. If you like the unusual, if you like twists and turns, if you like surprises, you just might like these books. If you can't come to Carthage Saturday, you can find my books on Amazon, B&N, Kindle and Nook or contact me personally on my website, www.pattywiseman.net
You can order them through any bookstore, as well.

I'm excited to mingle with some great people this weekend!

I have written an article about what to do while waiting for your book to hit the best selling lists online. You can't just sit back and expect it to sell a million copies over night. So what do you do? Tune in to Venture Galleries and get a few ideas. :)

Recently, I updated my website with some new items and am proud to be able to add my newest book, AN UNLIKELY BEGINNING, to the page. In honor of this new book, I am offering a free chapter! You can also get the 1st chapter of An Unlikely Arrangement, the 1st of the series, as well. If you like intrigue, romance, and surprises, you will get lost in these books. I am diligently working on the 3rd book of the series and hope to have it out in the spring. While you are waiting, I hope you will enjoy the 1st two.

I have found a great website called Funky Finds. Not only can you find unusual items and gifts, but it is a place where you can promote your book or find a good author and their works. Funky Finds supports the arts, and we writers are part of the arts! I am posting a link to the site. I hope you will go there and find the many things of interest. I love to share these things with all my friends!
