Next Chapter Bookstore was a delight! I keep thinking of all the Montessori horses galloping overhead as I read!

Of course, it was great to meet readers, too!

And The Signed Page is very good for that!

For people not familiar with it, The Signed Page is a site belonging to Shawn Speakman. He corrals writers as they visit the Seattle area, gets them to autograph First Editions and then he mails them out to readers who have pre-paid for them. You can get personalized inscriptions on the books, too.

If you are a Terry Brooks or Jacqueline Carey or Naomi Novik fan, you might want to click over there right now!

Even though I have been watching the tour online from Europe, I almost feel included since I got my signed Dragon Keeper + Dragon Heaven from The Signed Page today.

Yay

Congratulations on making it through the tour. Sounds as if it has been really successful. All that travelling around can be tiring but I imagine it would be a great motivation to see and talk to so many happy fans.

best

Thanks again for spending time reading and signing at Next Chapter Bookstore. It was a pleasure to meet you. This was the first reading/signing I have ever attended and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
