This weekend I participated in the Fountaindale Public Library’s Author Fair. Sitting next to me was a very nice man, dressed to the nine’s, named Joseph.
The event was held from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and many people came through to chat with the roughly 20 authors in attendance. I had the pleasure of speaking with several interested in genealogy, who said they would be attending the Fountaindale’s Genealogy Day next weekend, April 21.
My new Branching Out books were available for sale, as was my To Soar with the Tigers book. All books will be available for sale at Genealogy Day on Saturday.
It was a great day and I hope to attend again next year.
Here are some articles and reviews about my Branching Out books.

I am pleased to report my Branching Out Kids’ Textbooks are on track and will be released March 28, 2012. On this day you will be able to purchase the textbook in paperback form, PDF, or PowerPoint. The PowerPoint version has the same content as the book but with a few extras. It was designed for the visual, hands-on learner in mind.
The paperback will be available on CreateSpace. The PowerPoint and PDF versions will be available on my website through my E-Junkie store. Be sure to sign up for my newsletter to stay in touch with what’s going on with Generations. This is only the beginning of a major kids’ series. Also sign up for my editor, Stephanie Pitcher Fishman’s newsletter at Corn and Cotton. Together this year we will be collaborating on more educational resources. You will want to know what she is working on as well!
The following will be released March 28.
