I had so much fun at my first book signing at Barnes & Noble in Bridgeport Village! Thank you to Brent for making the day such a success. My biggest fear that no one would talk to me did not come true.

Happy Birthday to @MindyAlyseWeiss. If it were not for her and #PBParty I would not have celebrated the launch of my debut picture book earlier this month! Thank you for all you do for the kidlit community.
