Book Signing at the Alpine Avenue Grand Rapids Schuler's


My first book signing in a book store. My first attempt to give a speech about my book in front of--well, the public.  Yes, it was a little intimidating, but it was also tremendously fun. I'm grateful to family and friends who came to support me on this momentous occasion. It meant a lot to me to see you in the audience. 

It was also incredibly exciting to meet new people.  I got to meet someawesome readers and aspiring writers.  They were such fun to talk to. And what a fantastic opportunity it was to meet the bloggers who came ( The Hiding Spot and The Compulsive Reader are no longer just electronic entities!)
Thanks, Schulers, for giving me this opportunity. I especially appreciate Mark's hospitality in making me feel comfortable at my first book signing.

  1. Amy,
    Congrats on your new book. The Everafter was a fantastic read. I'll be looking for more of your books hopefully in the near future.

    Amy Loftus gave me the tip on facebook to read your book. Loved it and read it in one day!

    I don't know if you remember me from school..mom is Freddy.

    Take care,
    Cris Kruko

  2. Of course I remember you--both from school and from summers spent taking piano lessons with your mother. I'm glad you enjoyed the book! Thanks so much for stopping by to tell me.
