Fort Knox book signing

Come see me at Fort Knox on July 30th! I'm uber-thrilled to be part of their Civil War encampment event and even more thrilled to be making my first author appearance. It's a huge milestone and one that means so much to me.

Thank you to my husband, Erik, for his unending support, to Alexa, my amazing publicist for her jaw-dropping fearlessness, and to Leon Seymour, the Fort director, for taking a chance to have an unknown come and chat and sign. Also thank you to my readers and commenters, for sticking by me for a long time while I've been on the long road to getting this going. It's amazing.

Oh, and happy 150th anniversary of First Bull Run/First Manassas! Today was the day the VMI cadets showed their stuff, Stonewall Jackson got his famous nickname, and the North realized they probably shouldn't picnic near a battlefield! :)
