yep -- local author on display


My daughter Charis stopped by The Bookmark, an independent bookstore in Fort Wayne, and was surprised to see Storm Chaser shelved there. I’d asked them to carry it – The Bookmark and Summer’s Stories in Kendallville are the only book stores that carry print copies.

She got so excited that she attracted the attention of another nearby shopper – who decided to buy a copy! I think I’ve discovered a new form of guerilla marketing.

    1. Not only is it nice to see as an author, but with all the medical bills we've got coming in, we could use every dollar!
