My
family and friends have been very supportive of me during my writing career.
When my first two non-fiction books were published, my parents would look for
them in bookstores. If they found them with only their spines showing they rearranged
the books on the shelves so that the covers of mine were facing out so they
could be seen easier.
My husband is constantly telling people that I am a
writer and where they can find my books. My parents, siblings, children, and
grandchildren have come to book launches, sat with me during a book signing,
and passed on advertising information about my new books through social media
and other means.
When
they were younger my grandchildren helped out at some of my launches: acting as
doormen by opening doors for customers at bookstores, singing, or playing a
saxophone or flute during the interlude before my reading.
I have some friends
who buy and read all my books and continually tell me how much they like them.Thank you to my family and friends for your continued encouragement.
