Readers Take Denver 2024

April 24, 2024

We had such a great time on the road. But first I wanted to talk about the event.

It was a very large event with over 3000 readers…and 300 authors. It was so large but you were able to pick and choose the activities you wanted to do.

I was involved in two book signings and the murder mystery supper as Dusty, the librarian! I’m happy to say that I wasn’t the murderer!!

BUT I was able to visit with a couple of Patreons who came as well a met a bunch of new readers!! I was so excited and happy to meet new friends.


Traveling wasn’t just traveling and seeing all the cool things. We did have to work. Every day while Eddy did most of the driving I wrote at least ten pages a day.

Rowena did her best to help navigate or just sleep. We have a book release this week and one of Eddy’s jobs is to make sure the print books are ready. That’s what he is doing with his computer.

The other photo of Eddy is how he put together 200 goody bags for the murder mystery. And did you see that snow??? Kill me now!!

Literally when we woke up and saw the snow…I guess you don’t need to know what we said but trust me, it wasn’t pleasant!

Yesterday we rolled into our drive and it was gorgeous!! Sunny and warm. Eddy grabbed the lawnmower and while he mowed, I put in the laundry and started supper.

Today…my goodness…it’s raining. So I guess I’ll write my words this morning and then go clean the camper!
