Feeling overjoyed to be asked to participate in Indies First again this year, this time a little closer to home.
“Indies First is a national campaign of activities and events in support of independent bookstores, first envisioned by author Sherman Alexie in 2013. It kicks off each November, on Small Business Saturday (November 28, 2015), when independent bookstores host authors as honorary booksellers throughout the day to help sell books, share recommendations, sign stock, give readings, and more.”
I hope you all will come out to a brand-new Indie bookstore in Eden, NC, on Sat., Nov. 28, 2015 from 12-4 pm, where I’ll be hand-selling some of my favorite books and signing copies of Grace and the Guiltless and Her Cold Revenge, the first two books in my YA series set in the Wild West. Local fantasy author Teresa Fruhock will also be signing copies of her book, Miserere.
In keeping with theme, I’m planning to dress Western style in a fringed buckskin jacket, a full skirt, cowgirl hat, and boots. I always have fun getting into character, and Indies First is a great place to do it.
So pardners, if yer in the area, head on over to:
655 Washington St
Eden, North Carolina
(336) 612-2857
And if you’re not in the area, show your love for your own local Indie bookstore by doing some holiday shopping there on Small Business Saturday. After all, who wouldn’t want books for gifts?

Indies first is a great concept! We always seem to be traveling that day, but one of these years I will make it work. 🙂
It’s such a wonderful opportunity to support Indie bookstores! Hope you’ll get to participate at some point. I’m sure readers would love to meet you.
