Authors @ Douglas County

Authors, keep marketing and keep an eye opened for local venues to advertise your books!

Last July I was interviewed for Authors @ Douglas County, a program that runs on our local cable TV station. My interview started being aired last month, and today it finally made it to the county website. I'm surprised at how many people have come up to me to say they saw my interview.

Of course I mentioned how important ACFW and the Colorado Christian Writers Conference were to my education.

I'm proud to be on this well-produced show. Unfortunately, I tend to look up and to the side when I'm collecting my thoughts. Won't be doing that again!!

Check out local television stations in your area for this type of opportunity. I've found another station that I'll be contacting.

In other news:
Is is just me or have you noticed how some of our everyday items are becoming super sized? Last year we had to buy a new garbage can, and this one is about twice the size of what garbage cans used to be "back in the day." Do you remember when all garbage cans were metal cylinders that made lots of noise on garbage day?

I've recently purchased new "everyday" silverware, replacing the 1970 stuff with 2008 stuff, and guess what?? The newer version is bigger, much bigger.

I gave away the old stuff, but I just found a knife and teaspoon. Have we all grown to ogre size? Are our hands and mouths the size of Shrek that we need super-sized silverware? Really?!

Authors @ Douglas County

Today I participated in a taping of a local television program called Authors @ Douglas County. The program runs on our local cable TV station, DC8, and also is put online on their website. Authors @ Douglas County is well done, I'm proud and grateful to have had the opportunity to work with them.

It was a lot of fun to be interviewed by the host, Jamie LaRue, who is the director of our library district. I wish I could tell you whether or not I actually made any sense. I guess we'll have to wait and see. I was told that the program will probably be put online before it airs on television. I'll keep you informed when it's available to view. 

I know that one part of the program, when I was reading from Searching for Spice, will be put on You Tube. Sweet.
