Book Signing Follow-up @ Albertsons

Doing a book signing at Albertsons, a grocery store, is probably for many authors going outside the proverbial envelope, but it sure worked for me. I had just as much success there signing copies of THE SIGN OF THE EAGLE as I did at Hastings or other bookstores. It wasn't exactly a gold mine, but it sure came close and it was very near my home. I probably hit it right because it was the Saturday before Thanksgiving and the store was bustling. I was placed right in front of the check out/register section, so no one could miss me. Lots of people stopped by taking flyers and buying copies of my novel. I won't say how many, but I sold more here than anywhere else. It probably helped that I was a local author and some bought the novel on that basis alone. I had one fan from a previous signing who returned to buy another copy. She said she enjoyed my novel so much, she had to get one for her friend--nice compliment.

I want to thank store manager, Russ, associates Pauline, Zach and the rest of the Albertsons staff making this such a successful event.

In the enclosed picture is a new fan, Nicole. It turns out she is a pharmacist who works @ Albertsons.

Next signings: November 23rd @ Aunties Bookstore, Spokane, WA, and November 24th, Hastings--Shadle Park, Spokane, WA.
