There are bright lights to alleviate all the financial gloom around us these days. I am so pleased that my second book is beginning to get some exposure. Here's what's coming up:
October 21, Tuesday: I'll be interviewed on the internet for a show called Calling All Authors at 4 pm CDT. The host is publisher Valerie Connelly.
November 2, Sunday: Will have a booth at the Texas Book Festival in Austin under the banner of the Writers League of Texas, from 1-3 pm. Hope to see you there!
November 15, Saturday: The AIM Hospice in Rockport, Texas is hosting an event to "meet the author" and hear a short reading from the book. The most generally useful chapter will be on ways in which friends can help the grief-stricken person, including, how to write a really welcome letter of condolence. I am donating half the proceeds of book sales to the general fund of the Hospice. For information call 361-729-0507.
November 22, Saturday: The Katy, Texas, Bookworm Shop will host a book signing there from 2-4 pm. As I have family in Katy, I know that at least a few people will be there. And I know that the Bookworm Shop is so charming a place that many other Texans will take the trouble to come, too! I will read from the same chapter on how friends can help. Their number: 281-693-7323.
General: The Books Ink bookstore in Portland, Texas, has joined the group of Coastal Bend stores which carry the book. It was referred to me by Cody of Wildewood Books of Aransas Pass, which is closing for personal, not financial, reasons. The owners want to undertake some other activities. I look forward to getting to know Jennifer Hay of Books Ink. What a nice name. 361-643-3222.
So November will be a very busy month--not to mention the election, Thanksgiving, the Rockport Film Festival November 6-10, and visits to and from children.
