COWBOY CHRISTMAS GOES TO THE MUSEUM!
Today I
participated in Written Inspiration: A Children’s Book-signing Event at the Hern Museum of Art,
University of Florida, Gainesville.
Of course, my
trusty cactus, hat, and boots went along for the trip.
Kids who visited
my table made COWBOY CHRISTMAS bolo ties.
Best story of
the day:
Two young boys
and their mom rushed over to my table. “We checked your book out from our library last week,
and we’ve read it eight nights in a
row for bedtime.”
I asked the boys what their
favorite part of the book was. One responded, “It’s about cowboys and Christmas.” (That about sums it up, doesn’t it?!)
While the boys were
busy, Grandma snuck away and bought them a copy for Christmas. Of course, I
autographed the book and added a big YEE-HAW!

How neat you were an inspiration to those boys!
Congratulations! My first published book was a cowboy book, also - A Campfire for Cowboy Billy.
I wore my dad's fringed vest and my mom's boots for the signings. Enjoy!
Your blog is becoming a tutorial on how to launch a book! I'm stooping here first if (when!) the day comes to launch my first book.
