Selling Books in the Strangest Places

 If you know me, you know I love to meet new people. This has led to me selling copies of "Are We There Yet?" in the most unlikely places.

Last week, I gave blood and ended up having a long conversation with the nurse, Cindy,  who cared for me. Somehow we got talking about sisters - seems we each had three. As we shared stories, I mentioned my book and she wanted one to share with her sisters. So, band-aid firmly attached, out to the car I ran for a book for Cindy.


Yesterday, my husband, Hank , had surgery at Maine Medical Center in Portland and had to stay one night. As I sat by his bed helping him order dinner, his nurse, Lainy, came by to do his vitals. We got talking (as I am known to do!) and before she finished with his blood pressure, she asked to for a book. She has spent quite a bit of time in Kennebunkport and related to many of the places in which my story is set. 

She then told the other nurses on Hank's floor about the book and today, when I pick Hank up, it seems I'll be completing some unexpected book sales on R4!

So far, the book is selling itself! Now if I could just get it into some book shops . . .
