This Saturday, June 1, I’ll be reading and signing from 2 to 3 at the Timberland Regional library at 7023 New Market Street, Tumwater, Washington. I’ll hope to meet some readers there!

Timberland Regional libraries hold a special place in my heart. For years, I lived just outside McKenna, Washington and the closest library was in Yelm. That’s a different county from McKenna…. But Timberland libraries span Pierce and Thurston counties. As a result, my kids and I could have library cards there. In addition to checking out books from the library, the staff there was always ready to request books on interlibrary loans for me. That’s a big deal when you are a writer trying to do research!

In addition, they had wonderful summer reading programs for my kids. Walking in the Prairie Days parade as part of the summer reading club along with the costumed Book Worm was a highlight of summer vacation.

Thanks, Timberland. I’m honored to be invited to read and sign.
