Gift from Hello Sunshine

Gift from Hello Sunshine

I came home tonight to the most incredible gift from Hello Sunshine! It’s a framed painting of The Light We Lost by Jane Mount (!!!). I’ve already replaced a poster in my office with this gorgeousness. Thank you to Reese Witherspoon for this wonderful gift and for choosing my book as the February 2018 pick for the Reese’s Book Club. I am so, so grateful. (I love the card, too, which is now hanging on our tree!)

Final Author Events of 2019

Yesterday I did my two final author events of 2019. Thank you to Hadassah and Columbia for inviting me to speak and welcoming me so wonderfully yesterday morning and evening. I’ll be working on another revision of Everything After until early February, and then will be on tour for the More Than Words paperback, starting February 4! 2020 tour schedule to come soon!

Thanksgiving Sweepstakes

Thanksgiving Sweepstakes

In More Than Words, Thanksgiving is Joseph Gregory’s favorite holiday, and he uses it to write notes thanking people for the help they gave him throughout the year. I held a sweepstakes on my Instagram page for a chance to win a signed copy of More Than Words and a set of eight lovebird place card holders. Thank you for everyone for participating! I hope you had a wonderful holiday.

Books and Brunch Event

Books and Brunch Event

I had such a wonderful day at the Books and Brunch event supporting the Assistance League of Chicagoland West, which helps supply winter clothes, food, and more to community members in need. Loved getting to meet and listen to Mary Kubica and Eileen Meyer, and to see some familiar faces from Andersons Bookshop, who were selling books at the event. Thank you to all 500 (!!) people who came.
