After the successful author talk and book signing with the local garden club, the Ugly Dog Bookstore, and a private Girls Night Out last month, I dove into chasing down additional events. Friends were anxious to advise their connections of who to ask and where to go to share my story! Most organizations need a speaker for an upcoming meeting, and have been glad that I dropped into their laps!
To entice the program director of non-bookstore organizations to schedule me into her events calendar, I offered 15% of books sold during her event. Not only will I cost them nothing as a speaker, but they will receive a small donation as a result of their book sales!
Not every contact gets back to me on a timely basis, requiring a follow-up email or phone call. But the results have been quite satisfactory. Here’s a list of interviews/author talks/book signings scheduled for the coming weeks:
Feb 26… ‘Books and the World’ cable interview, Cape Cod, MA
March 16…Allentown Public Library, Allentown, PA
March 19…Brandywine Community Library, Topton, PA
March 22…Kutztown Community Library, Kutztown, PA
March 31…Ames Free Library, Easton, MA
Am I supposed to be having this much fun?
Happy reading and writing!
