Book Signing Event

What could be better than being in a bookstore? Being in one of my favorite places and signing my book!

So many parts of writing and publishing the Color of Death were such a fantastic experience. One great piece was book signings. I signed over one thousand copies! And one of the funniest things is, everyone that I told said that must have been such a tedious, horrible, time-consuming thing to do. I replied ABSOLUTELY NOT! I loved it and was so honored to do it. First and foremost, I am always humbled that someone would take the time to read my book, let alone want a signed copy. Book signings to me are like a curtain call! So to everyone who got a signed copy — THANK YOU!!

An Instant New York Times Bestseller

I’m so excited that The Color of Death placed on the New York Times bestsellers list. The New York Times Best Seller list is widely considered the preeminent list of best-selling books in the United States and has been published weekly since October 12, 1931.

When I first began writing, it’s no secret that everyone told me I’d never finish a book, let alone make it as a writer. After writing a few novels, they told me that it didn’t matter. They said I didn’t have an agent or a publisher, so I was just an independent hack. Then I hit the Wall Street Journal bestseller list. They said that success wouldn’t last, and said, “It’s not the New York Times. That’s the list that really matters.”

If my mother hadn’t raised me as well as she did, I’d be really tempted to reach out to those same folks and ask, “How do you like me now?!”

Presidential Tweets

Never in all of my years would I have dreamed that the President of the United States of America would tweet about my book but he did — twice!
