SIGNING UP A STORM

Every hour for the entire day we both kept checking the weather.  The forecast had originally been for high winds and torrential rains.  This was the day of our first book signing, and the weather was most definitely not cooperating.  It appeared we would be drowned out by forces beyond our control.

We were expecting over 65 people and now if we had three, it would be a lot.
Oddly we kept bolstering each other's spirits, though Lois was nervous, she was still excited as was I.  Ever optimistic, we toodled off to Book Revue in Huntington, toting our yummy home baked treats.  We had enough to feed an army, which meant we might be eating sweets for a month.

Suddenly the gods were on our side.  The mini hurricane held off until we finished our presentation and book signing. It was an exciting and responsive crowd.  Gratefully everyone got home safely with our signed novel in tow.

What a great night!
