This is Margaret Daley here. Last weekend I went to a booksigning with six other authors at Mardel's in Edmond. I had a great time. Not only did I spend some time with authors I'm friends with, but I got to meet some readers. What is so special about this booksigning was a reader I have been writing to for the past few years. I loved meeting her in person. This is one of the reason I enjoy writing. Booksignings to me are about meeting the readers, not selling the books. The picture above is of LInda Goodnight, Pat and me. The picture below is of me and Vickie McDonough.
What is a favorite moment you had at a booksigning as a reader or writer?

Sure wish I could join you some time, Margaret. I live a "litte" too far away! A favourite moment? When a reader has come to buy Book Two because she enjoyed Book One in the series so much!
ReplyDeleteThat's wonderful, Mary. Nice moment.
ReplyDeleteMary!
ReplyDeleteSo good to see you here. I've followed your career at Barbour, and I enjoyed meeting you last year at ACFW.
Margaret,
ReplyDeleteA favorite booksigning moment. I think it was the first time a complete strange came to the table and said, "Pamela Tracy?" Oh, I've read your books! And a few sentences later, she told me what Pursuit and Redemption were about and purchased Broken. A complete stranger knew my name. I felt like Fred from Cars.
Oh boy, that looks like fun! Wish I could have been there!
ReplyDeleteMargaret -- what a wonderful book signing! It sounds like fun to do it with a few friends.
ReplyDeleteA group signing is always best! I like to have someone to chat with. Hey, Mary! How're you doing?
ReplyDeleteI would love to be able to come to one of my favorite authors signings but don't have a book store near and can't stand in line so I have to depend on trying to win books that are autographed. May God bless all of you sweet ladies
