Book Signing at Trinity University
Thanks to Elizabeth Ford at Trinity University Alumni Relations for organizing a fun event for alumni authors at Trinity University. I enjoyed meeting other authors from my school, and I even got to take a trip down memory lane as I visited with Dr. Kersnowski, who was a professor in the English Department while I attended!
After Dr. Colleen Grissom’s speech in the Ruth Taylor Recital Hall, each author spoke for a few minutes before returning to our tables to visit with alumni. I told a bit about my young adult series, about how a mortal girl falls in love with a Greek god, causing some gods to give her gifts and causing others to try to kill her.
While a few people came up to take bookmarks and free buttons and ask about my books, I mostly visited with the author seated beside me, Robert Delwood, who
had written a technical book for users of Word. I was pleased to meet all of the other authors and found each of their stories (about what led them to write their stories) interesting.
I couldn’t believe how much the campus had changed since I’d been there. Northrup Hall, where I took most of my English classes, looked as though it had been scooped up and replaced with a completely different building.
Elizabeth promised to invite me again next year. I’m really looking forward to it.
Meanwhile, next weekend I will be in Plano signing at the Barnes and Noble on Saturday at 2:00 PM. I hope those of you from the area will come and see me. I’ll be bringing along a special surprise! And no worries if you can’t make it. I will reveal the special surprise to the rest of you later in the month! (Hint: It has to do with books and the holidays!)
