Accidental, serendipity, but he made a contact. That tour story has been on the web for two years, and still has life. And this fall, Spinetingler will be running an interview the boss just did with RC. You never know who you'll meet and make a connection with -- if you're willing.Jack Getzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09516237388744739669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-33789620985041656732009-06-29T17:35:03.254-04:002009-06-29T17:35:03.254-04:00Since I started attending conferences and book sig...Since I started attending conferences and book signings I've found that I'll often read somebody's work simply because I liked him/her. Most writers are super nice people, love to talk about books, and are very approachable. I want them to succeed and I also feel curious to meet their characters. I'm sure all these folks you meet along the way leave feeling glad they had an opportunity to meet you and many will be excited to read more. Good luck with your travels!Rachel Bradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543659454210547858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-17046391756408409292009-06-29T10:57:43.218-04:002009-06-29T10:57:43.218-04:00I've never gone on a book tour like you're...I've never gone on a book tour like you're on. Just never had the stamina to plan one.<br /><br />I love bookstores, but find I do much better with sales when I can give a talk--libraries, etc. <br /><br />I am a glutton for punishment though, and do a lot of craft and book fairs which are all day events. Next one if the 4th of July and it's supposed to be really hot.<br /><br />MarilynMarilyn Meredith a.k.a. F. M.

I have another friend who is a self-published author, and I've accompanied her on some of her book signings. Even if it's a slow sales day, there is always someone who stops by and completely makes her day. Some fans just stop by to say hi or tell her how much they love her books. Last time there was a lady who drove 3 hours just to meet her, and she and I both will never forget that!WriterMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17280436020496988815noreply@blogger.com
