Debbie Dadey's Blog: Congratulations! - Posts Tagged "mermaid"

Oh my goodness! Saturday was so much fun. Doylestown Bookshop had a Princess Party to celebrate the release of The Lost Princess. We had a princess lesson on manners, sang the Mermaid Song (because princesses love to sing), read from The Lost Princess, decorated crowns, and had princess cupcakes! I crammed my body into my daughter's amazingly beautiful junior prom dress and wore her fifth grade Cinderella tiara to become a princess for the day!

Wow, somehow it is the new year! I blinked and here it is. I am excited to share that I've joined forces with Stephanie Faris and Gail Nall to do a multi-state tour called Girl's Read. We're starting in my home state of Kentucky at the Blue Marble Bookstore in Fort Thomas on March 24th from 4-6. March 25th will be busy with two Barnes and Nobles events, one at Summit Plaza in Louisville from 12-2 and in Elizabethtown at 4:00. We'll finish up the weekend with a mermaid party at 2:00 on March 26th hosted by the Lexington Public Library Beaumont branch with Joseph Beth Bookstore providing books, including my newest Flower Girl Dreams. I'm tickled to announce that the school with the most kid's attending that weekend (we'll make a list as we autograph) will win a school visit from me! Hope I get to see you!

Thanks to all who entered the Goodreads giveaway for Ready, Set, Goal! Years ago, my daughter and I wrote a girl's sports-themed book. It was rejected with "Girls don't want to read about sports." My daughter was livid! So years, later I'm happy to say that Simon and Schuster just published Ready, Set, Goal! where mergirls and merboys alike play to win the Shell Wars Championship in Atlantis. Let the games begin! If you live near Marietta, GA I hope you'll join me Sept. 16th at 11:00 for a Mermaid Party on the Town Center Prada Barnes and Noble.Ready, Set, Goal!
