Last weekend I had a blast attending two book signing events in Iowa! In the morning I was at the Indianola Public Library, the home of sweet and helpful librarians. The visitors were very sweet as well! I showed everyone a video I made, “A Day in a Writer’s Life,” and then we had a fun Q & A session. There were even a couple aspiring authors in the group, which was great to see. Thanks so much to everyone who came, and thanks to the Indianola Library for hosting me!!

A case of stolen identity!

In the afternoon I was signing books at Cafe Diem in Ankeny. This coffeehouse is so cool—if you live in the area but haven’t been there yet, you have to check it out. The atmosphere, service, and drinks are all stellar. They even let me use a conference room where my entourage could hang out. THANK YOU to everyone who came, and thanks to Cafe Diem for hosting me!

And remember that video I mentioned earlier, the one I showed at the library? Well, now you can see it from the comfort of your home. Maybe you’re lounging on the floor in your pajamas—I wouldn’t blame you one bit. This video is half-serious, half-spoof. Good luck guessing which parts are true! I hope you enjoy this tongue-in-cheek view of a writer’s life . . .
