As you read this,
fellow Rose Diane Burton and I will be taking our act on the road. Literally. The road due
north from our homes near the center of Michigan to the resort town of Alpena
on the shores of beautiful Lake Huron.
Saturday,
September 24th we’ll be part of the 2nd Annual Alpena Book Festival. Panel discussions we’ll participate in include When You’re A
Michigan Author, Steps to Publication, Keeping the Spark Alive, It’s Out of
This World and Crossing Genres. Between workshops during the day, we’ll also
sign our books. (Crossed fingers and positive thoughts appreciated and accepted!)
Diane gets full
credit for my introduction to the Festival she discovered in her on-line
travels and initiated our attendance. Wish us luck.
In future posts, we’ll
let you know how we fared and, more importantly, how and when we plan to do
this again!
My days to blog here are the 11th and 23rd. For more about me and my stories, please visit my WEBSITE

How exciting for you both! I know you'll be wonderful. :-) I wish I could transport myself up to Lake Huron to join you! I'll be with you in spirit, sending all positive vibes. :-)
Thanks, Leah. Wish you and the other Roses could join us. The best part of this festival is no cost to authors (other than travel expenses). No table to rent, no participation fee. I like this kind of festival. Margo's a great travel companion. This should be fun.
You guys will slay it! Have a great time!
Road trip! Enjoy the experience. Take pictures, too!
Transport away, Leah! Next year maybe?
Oh thank you, Diane. I am aren't I? LOL! Kidding! You sure made me step out of my comfort zone. More later, ladies!
Slay it or us, Jannine! It'll be fun. You'll, of course, get a full report.
Oh yeah! Pictures, Rolyn. Can't wait to get to this!
This is where I get very jealous of people who live anywhere but New York. The little book clubs, indie book stores, and festivals you can go to and sell books. Good luck to you both, and have a great time.
Thanks, Andi. Wish you could join us. So far it's been very interesting and fun.
