We Can't Keep it on the Shelf...

"You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them." ~Desmond Tutu

So this is cool: my mom went into her local bookstore (our hometown) the other day to pick up My Mom is my Hero and mentioned that I was a contributing author AND that I had other books published under a pen name as well. The girl working at the desk asked for one of my titles and then went over, picked up One Night in Boston, and said, "You know, we can't keep this on the shelf."

((Grin))

Then my mom told her about the upcoming release of One Night in Memphis and that they should have a book signing there. I promptly told my mom she should become my publicist!

They always say the best form of publicity is word of mouth. Kudos to your mom.

Thank God for great supportive Mom's.
You need to hire her out as a publicist. She rocks!
