Perks in the Works!
While I have shared plenty of pitfalls in my life as an Indie author, this week has piled on the perks for my Contemporary Women’s Fiction novel, AN ENLIGHTENING QUICHE:
1 - My novel merited a 5-Star Badge from ATAI, signifying it was a finalist in their 2017 Book Award Contest for the category of Fiction. Accompanying the notification I received, was this statement - "And, please note that we take great pride in the fact that it is certainly not easy to earn 4 or 5 stars from our team."

2 – I have registered for the first Navigating Indieworld event scheduled for March 27, 28, and 29.
3 – Count me in for the “Brain to Books Cyber Convention and Book Expo 2017 hosted entirely online on April 7, 8, and 9. I’ve registered for the Book Expo, Author Showcase, and Genre Blog Tour. I’m eager to work on getting my cyber booth in shape for the epic event.
4- Taking a dry run to the Lincoln Senior Center and dropping off a book poster and flyer in preparation for my book signing on Monday, March 13th—I did a double take! Arriving on the grounds, I thought I was at a resort in the Catskills! The modern, sprawling building reminded me of a ski lodge. I had to scout for an available parking spot in a vast area. Meanwhile, people were disembarking from buses loitering by the main entrance. When I followed on their heels to get inside, the posh waiting area bustled with seniors. During my brief acquaintance with the director at the front desk, who assured me there would be people in attendance at my event scheduled for 10:00 AM, I walked out of there with a spring in my step.
Thus far, this entails my last local author event since I embarked on a whirlwind book signing tour throughout Rhode Island commencing in January. I hope citizens in my hometown show their support by snaring an autographed/personalized copy of my novel which takes place in my neck of the woods. That would be something worth writing home about!
