A Gift

Sometimes folks will ask how a new book is doing — and they mean sales-wise — but it’s months before a royalty statement comes and even then we might not have the foggiest idea how to read it.

So, I always say, "It’s doing very well… in my family."

That truth took a hit after my grandmother died.
(She’d been on a quest to single-handedly distribute my books to every sentient being in the state of Wisconsin.)

But my mom has taken up the task with gusto.
These are just some of the copies of Noodle & Lou she is giving away:

Pretty sweet, huh?

    Nice…will she adopt me?

    Nice! Would your mom like to adopt me and my hummingbirds book? When I ask “how is the book doing?” I also am thinking of reviews and signings and other responses. I know this book is doing well for you!

      Actually, she kind of IS adopting you. She LOVED the copy of hummingbirds that I sent her and she wants four more. Can we meet for coffee so you can sign them?
