Sterling Heights Local Author Book Sale: A Fun Summer Event For All

On By Sue AgauasIn Author Events, Author Fair1 Comment

I was excited to be one of the authors at the Local Author Book Sale hosted by the Sterling Heights Public Library during the weekend of SterlingFest on July 30, 2022. We had a wonderful time and it was so nice to connect with both readers as well as other local authors.

The Sterling Heights Public Library did a wonderful job of putting the event together. I would like to offer special thanks to Terry Hojnacki, author and volunteer event coordinator for the Local Author Book Sale. She made sure everything went smoothly and that the event was a great success.

Plenty of smiles and engaging conversations occurred on this beautiful summer day as I met with readers of all ages. It was exciting to share my book, Grandma’s Sock Drawer, with people and to sell signed copies.

I also shared pictures of Evert, a character that’s a shrew, from my upcoming book that will be published in 2023. I’m so excited to share this adventure with young readers!

We also had coloring sheets, a word search, candy, and lots of fun items at our table. My husband came along to help set things up and to cheer me on. We both enjoyed meeting people on such a lovely summer day.

Please watch my calendar and sign up for my newsletter for details of upcoming book signings and author visits. In the meanwhile, enjoy this beautiful summer weather and happy reading!

I’m excited to be a part of the Rochester Hills Public Library 2020 Virtual Author Fair which is being presented in partnership with Rochester Writers. This is the first time I have done something like this and it’s been a fun adventure. I recently did an interview on Zoom and then this recording will be aired on the weekend after Thanksgiving in honor of Shop Small Saturday. This will take place on Saturday, November 28, 2020 and Sunday, November 29, 2020 beginning at 11:00 a.m. both days. I hope you get a chance to tune in and listen to all of the fascinating interviews with all of the participating authors. Check it out here!

Here is the description from the Rochester Hills Public Library:

Join us online for the second annual Author Fair with RHPL and Rochester Writers. Nearly thirty local authors will be featured in recorded interviews that will debut on RHPL’s YouTube channel on Small Business Saturday, November 28 and Sunday, November 29. 

Beginning Monday, November 30, the library will release each interview independently on its social media channels, including YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. The interviews will feature a Q/A with the selected authors, as well as links to their social media channels and websites. Authors may read from their books or offer a creative interpretation of their published materials. 

These authors cover a variety of genres and are both traditionally and self-published. PLEASE NOTE: The YouTube links will not be live until Saturday, November 28 and Sunday, November 29. 

I love that we are supporting local authors with this event and sharing stories, wisdom, and insight with our communities. Normally it would be an in-person event; the virtual event this year is providing unexpectedly delightful benefits. It’s going to be a great weekend and I hope to see you at the fair!
