At the Fair!

Today I'm helping at the Gold Country Writers booth at the Gold Country Fair in Auburn, CA.

I'm sharing a booth with other members. We'll be selling our own books and those of other members who aren't there at the same time.

Of course I hope to sell lots of my own books, but even if I don't it's always fun to be with other writers, and to meet people who appreciate books and like to read.

As my bumper sticker says, "Bookaholics Unite."

Writers Together

I've attended two writers Conferences in the last few weeks and enjoyed both of them a lot.

Writing is a solitary business, but writers are communicators, so we tend to click when we get together. Many of my closest friends are people I originally met at writers conferences.

On Saturday, April 11 I'll be participating in a group book signing with other authors. While signings are on a much smaller scale than conferences and we don't have much time to share with each other, this is another way to be with other writers.

And most of the people who attend love books, so we have a lot in common with each other, too.

This signing will be in Auburn, CA at what is now called the General Gomez Art Center. That recently renovated facility at 808 Lincoln Way was previously the Placer Arts Center.

There will be a lot going on and I hope lots of people I know who live nearby will be able to join us.

It should be fun!
