I love how cute the store is!


Emerging author stage


Welcome to the Decatur Book Festival!

Over the weekend, I had the privilege of attending and speaking at the Decatur Book Festival. I spoke at 2:30 on Saturday at the Target Children’s Stage and had a blast! I met some amazing readers and the audience asked a wide-range of questions. When you get to the end of your talk and you say “Thank you. Any questions?” it’s ALWAYS scary. You’re convinced no one will ask a question and you’ll just stand there, face burning and then run off stage. So thank YOU, audience members, for saving me from that. Much appreciated! 🙂

I spent time vlogging, chatting with authors I’d been online friends with but hadn’t met in person and hanging out in the author suite. It was a great trip and the entire festival was so well organized. The volunteers were beyond friendly and the staff was incredible.

Thanks again, DBF, for having me!

Big, big thanks to all of my reader girlies who are reviewing Triple Fault–thank you! The reviews, especially at Barnes and Noble, are so much fun and I heart you guys! I can’t say enough how much I appreciate it. Also, I owe MANY of you e-mails and since I’m going out of town next week, it might take me a little longer to e-mail back. But I will! 🙂

Got a couple of links to share:

The fab and supercool Mara at Whitebook Farm reviewed Behind the Bit. Thank you, Mara!

Terra is an extremely nice person and I’ve been talking to about the Decatur Book Festival. She did a blog post about Canterwood. Terra is also from Little Shop of Stories–so go check out her bookstore.

Happy Wednesday!
