Today I got an e-mail that made my day!  It was from the Recognition Programs Coordinator at iUniverse.  Here is a direct quote, “Congratulations Barnes and Noble has purchased six  paperback copies of your book to carry in their stores!”  The amount ordered is small, but I know authors who have worked hard to get in book stores and still haven’t made it yet; therefore, this author is thrilled.

I am grateful to everyone who went to Barnes and Noble to order the book and to those who told others to do the same.  I am also grateful to the iUniverse sales force for presenting my book to Barnes and Noble.

Next steps:

Call the local printer to get PDF of book event signs printed and ready to go.

Call the manager of my local Barnes and Noble to arrange a meeting and hopefully a book signing.

Finally, there is abundant hope especially if I can arrange to have a book signing by April for Autism Awareness month.
