Area author....

Are you glad Friday is here?  Do you have special week-end plans?  Perhaps you plan to spend some of your time reading. 

Here are some books by a local author.

Written in order from top to bottom.

What is exciting about this author is that she is the mother of a former third-grade student of mine!  These books are fiction and are set in the area of the Smoky Mountains.  I am fortunate enough to have autographed copies of two of the books.  Later today she is having an autograph session, hopefully for the next book in the series.  Perhaps I will be able to convince her to autograph the books I have that are missing her signature.:-)

Thank you for reading.  I really appreciate your comments.

  1. How exciting to know the author of those books! I am not familiar with them, but the title of the first one sounds intriguing. :-) Our weekend plans are not very ambitious....just trying to stay cool, and a couple of meetings, including lunch with a couple of former co-workers, which will be lots of fun! Have a great day!

  2. I have always treasured autographed books Nellie. I lean more toward cookbooks but any book which has been signed by the author is quite special.

    Thank you so much for sharing. Marion and I will be doing some garage sailing this weekend. Wish us luck!

  6. I think that the author should be exited that you have all four of her book and she should be trilled to autograph them for you. It's nice that you have a chance to get the books autographed by someone who's kids you taught in school.
    Enjoy meeting her again.
    Hugs,
