I thought I’d take a minute to update you guys on the various book events I’m doing this fall and a couple of others set for 2009:

Sept. 19-21: Lora Leigh’s RAW (Reader Appreciation Weekend) in Huntington, W.Va. I’ll be schmoozing with authors and readers all weekend long. There’s a booksigning from noon-4 p.m. Saturday for conference folks, then another one from noon-4 p.m. Sunday that’s open to the public. I’ll probably cut out of the public signing about 2 p.m., though, since I’ll have to drive back home and go back to the day job on Monday.

October: I don’t have a firm date yet, but I’ll be signing books for a couple of hours one Saturday at Mountain Empire Comics in Bristol, Tenn., during their anniversary weekend. More details to come.

Oct. 17-18: I’ll be at the Women’s Expo in Kingsport, Tenn. There’s going to be a meet-the-authors dinner Friday night at Bays Mountain Park, and then the authors will be signing books throughout the day on Saturday. Some folks will sign on Sunday too. Other authors (tentatively) scheduled to attend include Lora Leigh, Shirley Damsgaard and Julia Quinn (that’s the rumor – I don’t know if this is confirmed yet or not).

April 2009: I’ll probably be going to the Romantic Times convention in Orlando, Fla., as long as the creeks don’t rise, as my grandma says.

July 2009: I’m definitely planning on going to RWA Nationals in Washington, D.C. Again, as long as the creeks don’t rise. 😎

So there’s my schedule for the next few months. Other events and book signings depend on a variety of things. So stay tuned for more! :ww:
