I’m packing my bags in preparation for the last leg of my book tour. It’s going to be a grand finale! Tour stops include Atlanta, Greenville, SC, Murrells Inlet and Charleston. I’ve had an amazing tour thus far, and I can’t wait to see all my Southern friends! To see if I’ll be speaking and signing at a location near you, please check my events calendar here!
While being driven to an event in San Francisco, I retrieved a voice message from my lovely publisher, Pamela Dorman. She had called to tell me that my new novel was already a NYT bestseller, landing on the list at #20. I am thrilled and feeling incredibly blessed. Huge thanks to all the booksellers, librarians, book bloggers and readers … it couldn’t have happened without you!
The notice comes out early, so this list will be officially posted on June 16th.
Last night following an author event where I spoke at Joseph-Beth Booksellers in Cincinnati, my friend and fellow author Jennifer King left me a gift-wrapped package. What was inside brought tears to my eyes. Each item had been handcrafted by Jennifer and had profound meaning. I’m so blessed! Thank you, Jennifer … I will cherish this forever!
