Fake Boyfriend Launch Book Signing Pics!

Thank you SO much to all of the friends, family, and fans that came out to my first signing for My Fake Boyfriend is Better Than Yours! I had a blast! Now for pics...

Getting ready.

The super cute cookies my friend Renee made for the signing.

Staring to sign.

Signing is so fun.

Still going.

My eternally silly friend (and author) Kristin Walker doing her, "OMG! It's THE Kristina Springer!" act. You can bet I'll be returning the favor at her next signing!

The beautiful flowers my friend Kerry gave me!

Ok, one more because they were so darn cool.

Thanks again for coming everyone! I'll be at the Author Fair in Aurora, IL, on Saturday and the Author Fair in Homer Glen, IL, on Monday it anyone is out that way!

Updates

It's been a fun week and I have some catching up to do. First, if you haven't seen it, check out Alice Pope's blog-- I'm debut author of the month! Yay! Very cool.

Second, the author fair last weekend was great! That was my first time participating in one and the time surprisingly flew by. It was 4 hours long and the library was full of authors, each at their own decorated tables. Except Kristin Walker and I wanted to share because we're dorks and we didn't have much stuff anyway. We both have just our first books out and some of these authors had like a dozen or more books so they really needed a whole table!


















And Monday night we went to the see fellow 2009 Deb Carrie Ryan at her Anderson's signing. I was so impressed by the huge crowd-- especially for a week night!






















Carrie's new book, Dead Tossed Waves just came out (I got it and I'm dying to get to it) and her first book, The Forest of Hands and Teeth made the NYT times list last week! Yay Carrie!


















I'm still trying to get more writing and critiquing in. I feel really off this week-- I'm thinking it's the daylight savings thing. Anyone else feeling this? I need to get with it!

Author Fair Tomorrow!

I'll be signing copies of THE ESPRESSOLOGIST at the Joliet Regional Author's fair tomorrow, Sat 11-3. Stop by if you're out that way. Location: Joliet Public Library - 3395 Black Road, Joliet, IL. There will be lots and lots of authors there!

Valentine's Day Signing Pics!

This is going to sound like a lame excuse but I swear it's true-- my 1 yr old chewed up my memory card. That's why there have been no V-Day signing pics yet. But Kristin from Bookworking into the 21st Century was there and took some great pics! Here are a few:
