Some News for Yous (& Ewes?)

The "ewes" was supposed to be an Easter joke, but I, uh, kinda missed my ideal date range for that. But you know me: I have never in my life deleted a pun, regardless of missing context, poor taste, or shear ( ;P ) reach. 

Yeah, I'm only a little sheepish about that last one. Hope I don't get lambasted over it. 

ANYWAY, now that that's over with, I have an event coming up!

BOOK FAIR BOOK FAIR BOOK FAIR! This Saturday, April 14th, from 1 to 4 pm! At the super fancy Carmel Clay Public Library! It's truly a gorgeous building... that I may or may not have gotten lost in when I applied for the fair, but you know, whatever. 

I have some new table goodies to give out that I drew myself. I put three of the heroes from Necessaries on bookmarks, which you can get by answering a question about what sort of hero YOU are at my booth. I already posted the full bookmarks on my Facebook page, but here are my initial sketches of the super-ladies:

(Hopefully the email version of this blog doesn't blow them up to terrifying proportions like it usually does with images... Anyway, from left to right: Eleanor Bellamy, Adelia Romero, and Polly Hilton.)

I'm really excited to have something new and interesting to bring to book fairs. It would mean the world to me if you stopped by, and even more (like, TWO worlds) if you took one of the bookmarks. 

I hope to see you there! :D 

Booking My Way Downtown (Walking Fast, Faces Pass, and I'm Fair-Bound)

I'm all kinds of psyched for October, guys. Not only is Halloween practically on our doorsteps, but I have some super-nifty stuff coming up throughout the month, and I'm jazzed out of my mind about that.

Whoa Mama, Book Mamas!

The Jerk, 1979

My shipment of Necessaries should arrive tomorrow, and I'll be taking those books to a self-published authors' book fair at Bookmamas bookstore this Saturday. Things are going to start happening to me now!

Look! My name's on their front page

If you're in the Indianapolis area, you should definitely check this place out. The fair itself is this Saturday, February 20th, 1:30 - 4 pm. You have no idea how much local writers appreciate just seeing you show up for something like this. Obviously, if you haven't bought a copy of Necessaries, this is a terrific opportunity to do so. When you purchase from the fair, part of that purchase goes to Bookmamas, a fantastic local business. 

Also, these copies of Necessaries are special editions. By special editions, I mean I didn't include the copyright and author bio that are now included in my official release, so there are some handwritten portions to add to the, um, character of the book. Hey, I promise these editions are gonna be something extra special when I hit the big time. Plus, they'll be signed! If you'd like, of course. 

Anyway, I can't wait to see you this Saturday! If you can, I'd love to go to drinks and/or dinner with you afterward. Comment if you're interested, or just show up and we'll go from there.
