For those of you who follow me on Twitter, you may have noticed me tweeting back in October about the Local Authors Night in Lititz at Aaron's Books. I was so excited I could barely sit still! And since NaNoWriMo set me back as far as blogging goes, I thought I'd spread out the fun and post about it now. Stay tuned for lots of pictures!
 |
| My tablemate, Brenda Lee Sieglitz, and me. |
 |
| Brenda was awesome. We had tons of fun talking books and writing together. |
 |
| With my mom. |
 |
| With my dad. |
 |
| The whole family. |
 |
| Max was very patient as he hung out for the full two hours. |
 |
| Friends from our homeschool group dropped by. |
 |
| Signing a copy for friends. |
 |
| Friends Sherri, Ron, and Jack are all super supportive of me. |
I got a big surprise about halfway through the night when someone came through the door. We met her a year ago, for her release party at Aaron's Books. You may have heard of her. Her name's A.S. King.
 |
| This is my I'm-trying-not-to-freak-out-as-I-take-a-picture-with-A.S. King-who-came-by-to-get-a-signed-copy-of-my-book face. |
 |
| With Sam and Todd, the owners of Aaron's Books. I'm so glad they invited me to come. |
 |
| With fellow local author Lynne Dempsey and her dog Coconut. |
 |
| My friends Mary and Kirsten hung out with me. |
 |
| Out for ice cream at Isabella's. |
It's still a little surreal to me that I was
actually at a book signing. That's the sort of thing I dreamed about not even a year ago. I had tons of fun and made great new friends.

@Vavó Thanks! :) I wish you could've been there.
So I'm a couple of months late to commenting on this, but hey, I was there and out of my mind excited for you, so I get a little slack. I'm so proud of you. You handled yourself with grace and poise and confidence all night long, even when Amy walked in (I, on the other hand . . . ). :)
I'm thinking that this post going live right after Thanksgiving and around the holidays might've made it not highly visible for some. I want to shout this from the rooftops!
@Boquinha Aww, thanks. :) Ha, like I said that night, you're the extroverted version of my introverted excitement.
You're probably right about the timing. I did get some Twitter feedback, though. :)
