A Book Signing, A Book Review, And Why I'm A Rock Star!




Recently I traveled to my hometown, East Bend, North Carolina, for a book signing at the East Bend Public Library.



This is a picture from that event. I'm with Brad Matthews, an old friend from Fall Creek Elementary School, that I hadn't seen in many years.


To coincide with my appearance at the library, Yadkin Valley Living Magazine wrote a review of THE BALLAD OF JESSIE PEARL. You can read it on their website, (page 54), or pick up a copy at local libraries and businesses throughout the Yadkin Valley.

A good friend asked how my signing went and I told her, "It's as close as I'll ever come to being a rock star!" The audience was full of family and old friends, (some of these friends I hadn't seen since our school days). My writing has brought me many special days, but none more special than this one.

  2. Kathy, I'm not famous enough to draw a crowd anywhere but in my hometown. THE BALLAD OF JESSIE PEARL is set in East Bend and people in that area are being super supportive of my book.
