This past Saturday marked my first official signing for The Education of Madeline. It was wonderful to see the copies stacked up waiting for me to sign.
I was at the Barnes & Noble in the MacArthur Center mall in Norfolk, Virginia. The staff was friendly and there was a ton of traffic in and out of the store. The highlight for me was when Kristie stopped by – she’s a reader who had been waiting for me to arrive.
*total warm and fuzzy feelings*
She had brought her friend Sondra’s copy of Madeline with her for me to sign (yay!) and then bought a copy for herself and another friend, Jennifer. I was thrilled to sign all of them and gave Kristie goodies for herself and friends.
It was so wonderful to have someone come to see me – you made my day, Kristie!!
The weekend was cold and rainy (still raining after 5 days of rain), but so worth the drive. After a romantic evening with DH, I came back yesterday and discovered, Madeline has been Kindle-ized!
Now all I need is a Kindle.
So for all you readers who’ve contacted me about the Kindle version, here she be!




Congratulations, Beth! That’s great news
And glad to hear the signing went well! I’ve got your book on my TBB list – now I just need to have the book money to spend
xoxo

Hello Beth, I am the lucky recipient of that signed book that Kristie brought in for me. What a great friend she was to do that and send it back to me here in Oklahoma! I’m glad she made your day, you made ours as well. Congrats on being Kindle-ized! I’ve had mine for about a year and love it. Although I do like a good paperback every now and then and I was glad I bought the paperback of Madeline since now it is personally signed by you! Thanks!
Thanks limecello! I’m looking forward to the signing at RT too – woohoo!
I’m glad you hard a great time at your first signing for Madeline. I so want to get this one. Are you planning on traveling anywhere else for additional signings?
Hi Stacy! As far as signings go, I will be in Orlando at RT next month, and at Lora Leigh’s RAW in September. I don’t have anything else yet scheduled – where are you located? Perhaps I need to travel.
Hey Beth, I’m in the Chicago ‘burbs. Though maybe you should consider Lori Foster’s/Dianne Castell’s annual June event. Very affordable and a lot of fun. I believe this is the 4th or 5th year now. Check it out @ Lori’s website:

Ah, yes, I went to Lori’s event last year. I don’t think I’ll be able to attend this year unfortunately. It was a lot of fun and so laid back!
