Keeping in Touch with Readers Through Author Appearances

The best part of being an author is meeting fans, signing books, and getting to know readers as well as fellow authors. I’ve enjoyed meeting many of you and hope to meet many more in the future. Below are a few photos from my author appearances at The Hicksville Library, Barnes and Noble in Carle Place, Mystic Author Signing Event at Foxwoods Casino, and Levittown Memorial Park (Levittown Library’s Summer Reading Kick-off Festival).
