Monday I joined ten other authors at a READLocal author's event put on by Agawam Public Library. Since I've never joined a writer's group, this is the best way for me to get to know other authors. The event drew quite a variety of authors who work in various genres. I even sold a few books. "A Scattered People" seemed to have the most appeal, in part because several of the families launched their cross-country migrations from nearby towns. The New Mexico novels drew less interest. Typically, when I asked one person who was looking over my table whether she had any interest in the Southwest, she said, "Not much."
