The display is ready

A short, fat gnome holds up Shalanna's book in front of the display

What does it take to get a book published? Let me tell you all about it

And all about revision, inspiration, perspiration, carpal tunnel syndrome

A witty remark. Laugh, people! And to think only the front row had to sign model releases

Answering a question about the sequel, A CHANGE IN THE WINDS. Yes, it'll be published next year, God willing and the creek don't rise, unless this book doesn't sell well, so tell everyone you know

Heart-to-heart about book tours and how exhausting they are (I've already signed her book)

After I give my little talk, Mama gets me a cold drink out of our secret cooler and I stretch my chubby little leggies

Mama and her friend are proud that I still have a short line for books to be signed
