Happy to be starting the first leg of the Girl's Read Tour with fellow Simon and Schuster authors, Gail Nall and Stephanie Faris. First stop is
the
Blue Marble Books in Fort Thomas, KY on March 24th from 4-6:00! Saturday, March 25th will be busy! The Girl's Read Tour will be at TWO Barnes and Noble stores:
Paddock Place in Louisville at 2:00 and Elizabethtown at 4:00. Sunday, March 26th The Girl's Read girls will be at the
Beaumont branch of the Lexington Public Library at 2:00. It will be a fun day with a mermaid party! The best part will be finding out which school (whoever has the most students attending that weekend) will win a school visit from me!
And speaking of mermaids, I'll be attending my first ever Under the Sea Luncheon at the amazing King Library in Sevierville, Tn on April Fool's Day from 11-12:30.
Skypes with Mexico, New Jersey, Iowa, Kansas, Tennessee, and Venequela are fun! But your school should be next! Live author visits are much better, but Skypes are the next best thing. I still have a bit of room left on my last free Skype day of the year, May 5th. Click here if you are interested.
