Dreams come true when you…
…table your fears.
Okay, that title is a little cheesy, but… I did something I’ve never done before. I called a major bookseller and asked if they’d carry my books in their store. Here’s the 411: My town has a brand new BARNES AND NOBEL bookstore opening on July 9, 2025. I wanted to see if they’d carry my books since I am a local author and most of my titles are in wide distribution now, B&N included. I received and email from the store manager a few days after I sent that ask and…
I am so indescribably delighted to announce I will be a guest of the store, at a booksigning on opening day!!!
Here is the official notice on the B&N website:

SOmeone once told me that luck is really just preparation meeting opportunity.
My prep was my 65 title book list. The opportunity? A new store coming to town and me feeling brave ( for once!) to ask for something I wanted.
The result? A dream come true – my books in a major retail bookseller and a booksigning at the actual brick and mortar store.
Can you spell GOBSMACKED???
I sincerely hope you can join me if you are in the area on July 9th. I would lovelovelove to see/meet/talk with you and share with you this monumentous moment for me!!!
I’m still pinching myself trying to wake up from this lovely dream ( come true!)
