I’m happy to announce that this weekend in glorious Colorado Springs there will be numerous booksignings at a variety of locations with a number of authors.

I’ll put the locations and time below, but I wanted to share about this for another reason. Sometimes people are hesitant to come to booksignings because they worry about what to say or do. I had one lady tell me that she didn’t come to a book event, because she was shy and didn’t know if she’d be brave enough to actually meet the authors.

If that’s you, or you worry that you’ll be expended to buy something, put your fears aside. For me book events are for the sole purpose of getting to know the store owners/managers, the workers and of course the readers, and for letting them get to know me. I want to put myself out there and show everyone that I’m just a regular person. Actually, I’m a pretty shy person, but readers always make me feel welcome.

Over the years I’ve seen God work in wonderful ways through book events, so I go where He calls me, no matter my comfort level, no matter the weather, no matter. I hope I’ll get to see a bunch of you at the booksignings, but even if I don’t, just know I think about you as readers and booksellers, and I pray for you. I know the economy is rough and that times are difficult, but know that this didn’t take God by surprise and He totally has it under control.
