Mountain of Authors

Last weekend, I participated in the Mountain of Authors event at the Pikes Peak Library's 21c location. Fans of literature of all genres and age ranges wandered through to meet local authors. 

I enjoyed chatting with writer friends and meeting readers. I'm not comfortable with the marketing side of being an author. Being able to tell people they could check out my books from the library relieved some of the "look at my book" pressure.

I know, I should hustle. Sell my books. I'm trying to be better. Especially because I'm testing the waters of Indy self-publishing. The last half of 2025, and next year, I promise to stretch my limits. 

Mountain of Authors was a friendly event. I felt like I was in my safe place: the library. I learned so much from conversations with other authors. Really, this networking thing isn't that bad.
