Upcoming Events

I will be selling my books each second weekend of the month, Saturday and Sunday. How often I do this depends on the response to my books. I'm hopeful that it will be a successful venue! I've signed up for May and June, and I'll let you know how things go! If you're in town, come on by and buy a book!

Update: We had a great time in May, selling books and talking to shoppers. I'm looking forward to June 13 and 14. I hope to be in the same spot near Penney's. Come on by!

Meet the Author - Book Signing

I'll be featuring my newest book, The Door In the Carnegie Library, but I'll have all my books available for purchase. It's quick and easy. I give you a copy of the book's barcode, which you give to the Fry's checker....
