No great crowds, but many people came in to talk and take a book home. Many thanks to Mitchell’s Coffee House for hosting me; they were gracious and helpful. And Bill couldn’t resist taking home a couple of their brownies!
I was glad that I hung in there with getting my point-of-sale device working…which didn’t happen until the night before, at 9pm. So there was a bit of frustration about missed connections, but it all came together in the end. We’re able to relax a bit.
One of my beta-readers was there, and went on and on about how much she liked The Girl Who Talked Too Much, and how funny and unpredictable Kippy was, and she had to keep reading just to see what Kippy’d get into next. Someone else raved about American Governess, and how fascinating it was to read about my adventures in a Bavarian castle being governess for the five children of a Count back in 1962. I didn’t have to make much of a pitch!
Here’s a kind of blurry picture of Kippy in Colorado with Jenny, when she got to visit some horses.
