Book Signing Follow-Up
Book signing follow-up success with a twist (literally). And no, Barnes & Noble Booksellers, Kennewick, Washington, does not sell snakes or other living creatures. I have conducted more than 100 book signings and have met many interesting people from all walks of life, but yesterday, October 5th, while conducting a signing at this store, I encountered one of the more unusual in my experiences. She is "Neph" the snake lady (short for the Egyptian queen, Nefertiti) and her friendly female boa constrictor, Mooshoo. Apparently, they are frequent visitors to the store. "Mooshoo is very well mannered," Neph said.
I stroked the snake on its head and jaw and she darted her fork-tongue in and out like flashes of lightning. "You have made a new friend, Mooshoo likes you," Neph said.
I guess that's a good thing. Had to take a photo of her and Mooshoo.
This was a very successful signing and I sold lots of books. Event coordinator, Emily (friend of Neph) said, "You are one of our best local authors, and it was such a pleasure having you here." I will return Spring, 2020, for another encore.
I want to thank Store manager, Rich; Event coordinator, Emily; Assicuate, Seth, and the rest of the staff for making this a successful event. And thanks for stopping by, Neph and Mooshoo.
