CE and all,

After Dennis mentioned a site that he'd found contained several ideas for book signings, I visited www.celebratelove.com and emailed the author, Mr. Larry James. I invited him to stop by and he did, but thought he was at the wrong place. I've asked him to return and will direct him to this thread to introduce himself and offer any hints or suggestions that he's found particulary helpful.

Best,

Vickie

CE:

Mr. James tried to sign on but couldn't. He gave me permission to copy and paste this. Something about all the java scripts not being compatible with his browser or something like that.

"Hi everyone! A special thanks to Vickie for inviting me to stop by. I always appreciate the opportunity to help other authors (and speakers). There are numerous links of interest to authors that can be found at: http://www.CelebrateLove.com/authors.htm. Although I am a professional speaker, author and relationship coach, my site is not ONLY about relationships. I am always interested in adding new info, so if you have some ideas of things you would like to see added, please give me a call (480-998-9411) or send me an e-mail from my site.

Vickie mentioned my "BookSigningTips." That list has been growing ever since it was first published and has been read around the world. Some have said it's one of the most complete lists they've seen. I can say that they have helped me increase the sale of my books at signings.

I believe that book signings are an opportunity to build "relationships" with the book sellers. I consider book signings as an opportunity to SELL the book sellers on recommending MY books when someone asks for a good relationship book!

At the risk of sounding self-serving, I also offer "Author/Speaker Coaching." Info at: http://www.CelebrateLove.com/authorcoaching.htm.

Thanks for the opportunity to share my site with you and your visitors. If I can be of service, please let me know.

Celebrate Love!

Larry James"

Thanks.

Well, that's cool.

I can understand the java thing - sometimes java can be annoying, or dangerous, and folks turn it off. If you talk with him again, please express our gratitude for his message, and let him know that there are only 2 scripts on this page and 2 on the main site, both very innocuous.
