    Hi Roger... your real signature, shaky and all, is what people really want. It's authentic and personal.

    Hi Joanne -- we are thrilled that you found such value in this webinar. If you search on "book signing" or "events" here on the ALC you'll find even more great content that can help. Good luck with your poetry book and I hope you have many successful book signings.
  • Thank you!!! Have a poetry book, Scraped Knees, that is now available on line and is in the process of the final publication process, have not yet received the author copies. The information in this webinar is so valuable that I will be listening again and organizing my notes and my preparation for a book signing in the future.
  • Thanks Jessica! I feel much better prepared by your coaching. However, with my shaky handwriting, I don't think I can write anything readable. So my scrawled signature will have to do. . . Roger "Guys"
  • Thank you for your insightful tips. You have helped me feel comfortable and confident that I am going in the right direction with early planning and promoting. At my first book sales event the container of soft peppermints seemed to have drawn customers that I was able to pitch my book too. Thanks for the confirmation on engaging the customer. I'm hoping I have so many books to sign, I won't have time to walk around.....smile.... Thanks for sharing!
