>My First Book Signing

>
I thought I would lump my two signing/launch events together, but then I decided that my first book signing should have its own post. What a fun evening. My publisher set up the signing with the Mardel Christian Book store in Tulsa and provided beautiful posters and flyers announcing the event. And the host store was so accommodating, I kept looking behind me to see if Francine Rivers or Ted Dekker had just walked in and they had me confused with a bona fide author. Okay, I’m bona fide. I’ve got my name on the cover to prove it, but it’s all a bit surreal to me. The evening was a huge success, and I’ll just let the pictures tell the story.

Great evening with just the right balance of friends, family, and a few customers. A special thanks to the two Gayla’s (you know who you are) who sent the beautiful bouquet for my first book signing.

I’ll share some of the highlights of the book launch in Texas next time. Happy reading!
