My Denver Book Signing

024029006005

At the Mountains and Plains Book Expo, I took part in the Authors Signing Night. It was a treat being in the same room with 75 other authors, autographing copies of my book “Dad, The Tooth Fairy Didn’t Come!”

Most of the authors were very kind, and I even came out with a button which read, “I AM NOT A SERIAL KILLER.”

The biggest surprise to me was to find out that the pen of choice for signing is not some expensive custom ballpoint, but rather a permanent black Sharpie. The reason is that it make a very bold statement. Nearly everyone uses them.

So much for the diamond encrusted calligraphy pen with the magnesium thumb grip that I had my eye on for when I make it to the big time.

How Soon Should You Pack for Summer Camp?

Celebrating Children’s Book Week, I’m pointing out the benefits of reading to your children. In my family our 4th child is world famous for her smile. In my book “Dad, the Tooth Fairy Didn’t Come!” she is the one who is dressed like a princess. She loves reading horse books, princess books, and girl mystery books. She is a hard worker, able to do tasks that older children find challenging, and an eternal optimist. She’s so excited about going to summer camp, that she is already packed, even though camp is about 8 weeks away.
