 Here I am, all set up for the book fair at Mysteryscape. Cheri, at the desk, is one of the owners. She will ring up the books I sell.  Ah, a customer. She likes cats and cozy mysteries, and she likes CATastrophic Connections!  A lull. Everyone found some books, had them signed, and proceeded to checkout. Another bunch of folks will head in here to browse in a bit. (Notice the cat poster on the right. That's my table. A lady is still looking at my book and asking about the plot.)

 The second annual Local Authors' Book Fair took place at Mysteryscape Bookstore in Overland Park, KS on Nov. 13. There were mystery authors of every kind--thriller, young adult, children's, historical, true crime, detective, cozy, and probably some overlaps. Some authors had written a mystery or two and some books of other genres and brought all of them to sell.
Friends of the authors, bookstore regulars, and passersby came in to talk to the authors, get bookmarks, business cards, and other promotional information, and to buy books for themselves or as gifts. I had fun promoting my Psycho Cat and the Landlady Mystery series and selling CATastrophic Connections. I sold to cozy mystery lovers, cat lovers, and people who wanted a gift for one of those types. One of the local authors (in the foreground above) also writes for The News Hub. She interviewed many of the authors and wrote an article about the book fair for the site. See her article at: https://www.the-newshub.com/stories/book-fair-in-the-heartland I had a blast and hope I'll be invited back next year. |
