Had the most wonderful time with booksellers and incredible authors at this year’s ABA Winter Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico as part of the Indies Introduce program. I attended my very first book signing–a milestone! So lucky to have such an amazing team from Simon & Schuster and Simon Pulse to guide me through this exciting process. And we’re all blessed to have so many committed, passionate indie booksellers in the world.
