Happy Easter weekend, everyone! We are having a relaxing, fun one so far and hope that you are too! I’m so, so excited because I can’t believe in a little over a month from now, DEAR CAROLINA is going to be on bookshelves and in readers’ hands! Amazing! The countdown is on, for sure…
I thought I would go ahead and share my first tour dates with everyone. If I have an event in your area, and you can come, I would be unendingly appreciative. It’s sort of nerve-racking to think about doing these things, especially in the towns where I don’t have plenty of friends and family. Although, I have been told that you aren’t really an author until you have an event where two people come. All the same, I’d rather avoid that!
If you have a book club (I don’t have book club dates listed on here yet, but I’m so excited about the ones I’m already going to! Thanks for asking me! Hooray!) or want me to do a signing in your town, just let me know! If I can work it out, I absolutely will.
