Lance & Ringo Tails book signing at the Saturday Morning Market!

Long ago, before the female started writing the wild adventures of Lance and Ringo, she sold jewelry at a wonderful farmer's and craft market in downtown St. Petersburg.

Now, she has the chance to go back, but this time as a local author!

When you are searching for my booth among the many vendors, it will look something like this:

What are Lance and Ringo up to these days?

Coming soon: more book signings for the female AND another contest. Stay tuned!

So what are Lance and Ringo up to these days? They are basking in the joy of having a paperback and ebook short story collection that is all about them. But what else?

Primarily... mischief!

Watch the video to see if Lance will stop Ringo from trying to rip open a box that is clearly NOT for him.

Book Sales and the Brothers

The female had a wonderful time signing books at Gulfport's Get Rescued. The event was primarily for pet rescues to showcase animals who need loving homes. The street fair had a lot of foot and paw traffic!

Here are some photos from the event.

Lots of two- and four-legged visitors!

The female was so pleased that ten books found loving homes! Not only that, she heard that several of the rescues were adopted at this event. That's something to celebrate!

When she got home, the female found Lance and Ringo had hardly noticed that she left. The brothers were busy just being themselves.

Book signing at Gulfport's Get Rescued

On Saturday, Feb 22nd from 10am-6pm, I'll be signing Lance & Ringo Tails books at Gulfport's Get Rescued event.

If you are near St. Pete/Gulfport that day, come by my booth on Beach Blvd in downtown Gulfport and get your signed copy. I would love to see you!

Hard work and deserved rest

The first book signing at the Bradenton Reading Festival was a wonderful time for Lance & Ringo Tails. Several books found new homes, and more importantly, the word is spreading about these fun stories.
