Getting Ready
Well the books are in, the bags are decorated, and now, I wait until the signing next weekend in Waltham, Ma. I guess its par for the course. Not so nervous this time around.

Now you're a pro. *smile* How did you decorate your bags? Do you have goodies inside for potential book buyers?

actually, yes. First I ordered basic white handled bags. Bought clear shipping labels and printed my book cover on them so I could add them to the bags with tissue paper. As for gifts, I ordered from oriental trading, a bag of beach themed toys, mini beach balls, and candies, plus dolphin water proof containers and chocolate covered spoons (The writers Coffee shop see the connection to the spoons?) for if someone buys 3 or more books. And since its the day before easter, I bought candy bracelets for any children who come with their parents. I like to make it fun for all. The prices were great and everyone loves getting something extra.
Those are wonderful ideas! I like the incentive. I'm trying or order pens with the cover of my book, but I'm about to pull my hair out. Haha Did you sell many at your first event?
are you ordering the pens from vistaprint? all 20 plus 15 orders from the first
No I'm using discountmugs. Shae suggested them and their prices weren't bad. That's wonderful about your sales!! I hope we do that well at SoonerCon in June. :)
Still seeing if its in my future. Very crazy with finishing book of my Mocked series and have started a new series that i haven't released yet. But I will try!
