Book Signings and More!


Me and Moses at Kids Ink

My first two signings were loads of fun! The first, at Kids Ink in Indianapolis on Sept. 19th, included a little reading and lots of signing of both Monster Trucks and Peter, the Knight with Asthma. The place was packed, and I was honored to share the day with veteran authors Rebecca Kai Dotlich and Lola Schaefer.

On Sept. 27th I participated in the 4th birthday celebration of The Wild kids' bookstore in Noblesville, IN. I took along my guitar and sandwiched my reading of Peter between two songs. The crowd sang and danced along nicely, and afterward I was honored to meet and sign. Fellow authors for the day were Ashley Ransburg and Kaza Kingsley, and local artist Tracy Buckingham exhibited her young students' artwork.

Many thanks to all of you who stopped by, and to Kids Ink and The Wild! I feel like a real author now. :)

Book Signing Sept. 19th

My first book signing takes place this Saturday, Sept. 19th, from 11-12 at Kids Ink children's bookstore, 5619 Illinois Street here in Butler-Tarkington. I'll be appearing along with two much more experienced authors (thank goodness), Rebecca Kai Dotlich and Lola Schaefer, who also write poetry and picture books for the preschool/young elementary set. Hope to see you there!

(My next signing is Sunday afternoon, Sept. 27th, at The Wild children's bookstore in Noblesville. More details to follow)
