Why Fairs and Conferences

During my writing life I’ve gone through periods where I attended book fairs and writing conferences and sat at booths to sell copies of whatever book I had just published. This was particularly true during the 1990s, when Women at Play: The Story of Women in Baseball was published, and then again in the early 2010s, when I began to self-publish books. When Jack and Larry was published in 2012, I traveled to a lot to give talks and sell books.
