If it is, I'll mosey on over pick up the book and look at it. If the author starts talking to me, I'll answer. Depending on how well I interact with them will often determine on how long I stay at the table and think about purchasing the book. (I don't know if this helps. I definitely don't like feeling pressured. Casual and carefree conversation makes me feel at ease and allows me to feel comfortable enough to easily discuss the book or other items.) Of course, if I saw you in my local bookstore, I'd would make a bee-line for you and introduce myself. If I didn't have my copy of "Sandwich with a Side Romance", I'd probably buy a 2nd copy to have you sign it.<br /><br />I hope all goes well for you and have fun on your blog and other tours.<br />Tammi T.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885384159016667608.post-27327408464127446432012-10-03T16:57:42.333-05:002012-10-03T16:57:42.333-05:00I would deff go up to the author and start talking...I would deff go up to the author and start talking. and I would run over to them if it was you!!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07971280212632871066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885384159016667608.post-66369971467181164442012-10-03T13:40:17.739-05:002012-10-03T13:40:17.739-05:00Krista, it's fun to see you visiting others in...Krista, it's fun to see you visiting others in the blogosphere. I hope you're having fun and aren't too overwhelmed with all the promotion commotion.<br /><br />My advice regarding your appearances is to relax. Those who are coming to see you want to be there. They're excited for you. And what can be really cool is that they want to talk about your book and your writing. It doesn't get much better than that. =)<br /><br />As far as signings. Yes. You'll get people who avoid making eye contact and go out of their way to stay as far from your signing table as possible. I've thought about putting a sign on my table that says something like this:<br /><br />Yes, I'm here to sell books.<br />No, I won't force you to buy mine.<br />I'm just a mild-mannered author who would love to talk with you about what you like to read.<br />And I have chocolate!Keli Gwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13236868298400593688noreply@blogger.com
