Traveling Bookshelf was my first signing when I first began my writing career. Every year, I plan to attend until Beth kicks me out. It feels like home. A signing yes, but also a huge girl weekend. Lets face it, mamas don’t get that very often. This year I needed it more than ever, to just listen and observe, and most importantly to smile and laugh. I felt like I was sick of thinking what I was thinking daily. I welcomed the change of scenery.
For those of you that I get to see yearly, thank you for being in my life.
For those of you that I just met this weekend, I look forward to many more times of seeing your gorgeous faces!
A lot of people think signings are for the readers. They get to meet the authors, buy books and see their book friends. But… as an author, when I see your faces and see that you want to read my stories it makes me remember why I write. Why I push myself when I want to throw the towel in.
So on behalf of all authors, thank you.
Because I write because of you.
