Booksigning at Turn the Page

Friday morning I experienced my very first book signing. It was amazing. The first big thrill was actually seeing my books in a bookstore. I’ll admit I was shamelessly sending brain waves to customers: Pick up my book, Go buy my book.

Then when the signing began, I was delighted to be seated next to Diane Gaston, who also writes as Diane Perkins. Both of us write for Harlequin Historicals, so we nicknamed our table the Harlequin table. I had such a wonderful time talking with the customers and readers. Since our table was right beside the door, many folks were stuck in line for several minutes, and we chatted about our favorite authors. I gave out Harlequin sparkly pens and magnets, and had a great time signing books. It was a successful signing, overall, and I sold my entire box of books. I don’t think it gets much better than that!

Last, here’s a picture of Diane, Nora, and myself after the signing was over. Nora is a very gracious author, and really takes the time to speak with each of her readers. I really liked her.

Hope you enjoyed the pictures! Tomorrow I’ll share a little about the WRW retreat, which was fabulous. And don’t forget, today is the last day to enter the April contest for the Mother’s Day Pampering Basket! Just e-mail me the name of the hero from Her Irish Warrior, and the heroes from Natalie Anderson’s All Night with the Boss and Donna Alward’s Hired by the Cowboy Good luck!

So if you could meet one author in person, who would it be? For me, I’d LOVE to meet LaVyrle Spencer and worship at her feet say hello.
