Hastings Book Signing #2

I was excited to be invited back to the local Hastings to participate in a 40 + author book signing. I got to meet some very nice people, and to spend some time with an old friend/author/co-worker of mine, Amy Wilde. She wrote a very inspirational Memoir entitled, White Bees that has caused a ton of tears. I might start calling her Noah. Her long time friend, Karen Sunderland stopped by and spoke to us too. She has an amazing food storage cook book (the cover had the power to make me hungry, even though I had just eaten.) She’s been in the industry for a while, and shared some nice best practices.

I also got to chat with some other interesting authors, and to discuss how they approach things. I probably spent the most time with S.R. Ford. He has written some great fantasy that you might want to check out.

My youngest daughter, Ellie, decided that she wanted to come to the signing with me. She was adorable. Not only did she walk around and talk to everyone as if she was my agent, when she got bored, she asked if she could take a copy of The Magic Shop and walk around the store and approach customers about visiting the authors and buying the book. She’s going to go places.

Now, she may be outgoing, but that doesn’t mean that the pictures she took came out as amazing as she is. I’ve posted them below. (A ++ for effort and attitude.)
