I recently applied to be a part of my library's local author fair. It's the first time they've held an event like this, and I was one of the twelve authors accepted. I've never participated in anything like this as an author, and I'm really excited. One of the first things I realized is that you need more than books for success. I asked other authors how they did these events and received so many great ideas - like bookmarks with my novels and information on them, business cards, sign-up sheets for my newsletter, a candy bowl! |

Of course, I didn't stop there. I had to get book display stands, a table runner, a credit card reader. At this point, I've probably spent more than I'll make back at this event. Fortunately, I'll be able to use the items again and again. I'm looking forward to meeting readers and introducing them to my novels. |

And now for the most important question of all - what kind of candy should I get? Hit reply to this email to let me know what you'd like to see in the candy bowl. |
