My Very First Author Fair!

Jen Schoenbein

I mean, geez! Look at that smiling face!

I couldn’t feel more blessed after Saturday’s author fair. I obsessed about how many books to bring, and in the end I sold all but one of the books I brought! *Mind Blown* I also donated one to the Peoria Public Library, so be sure to check it out if you’re in the area. I plan to, several times.

I honestly had no idea I would sell so many. I thank every one of you, supporting a local author.

Anyone that didn’t get a book, let me know. If you’re local I can get you a signed copy, otherwise, head over to Amazon.com for an e-book or paperback copy. Not local and just dying for an authentic hand-signed copy? Send me a message. I’m sure we can work something out!

I met so many wonderful people this past Saturday. There were tons of good writers and fun, interesting readers. A couple of local authors held talks about writing and publishing.

I was surprised by my parents and Grandma, who had driven an hour to come support me! I’m proud to say that I had several friends come support me as well.

So, I’d say it was a success. It was good for building a reader base, but it was also good for my soul. 🙂

Thanks again and Humbly yours, Jen
