One of the wonderful parts about writing a book is sharing it with others, and this I have been doing over the last two months. After a Zoom talk for the Icelandic League of the United States, I had my first in-person presentation here in Seattle at Third Place Books Ravenna.
So much fun! Lots of people, including supportive friends, lots of interesting questions.
I also gave a talk at Village Books in Bellingham, where I did an interview for KRME Radio.
Sourcebooks, my wonderful publisher, sent me to the East Coast for talks that included one at the A Likely Story Bookstore in Sykesville, Maryland, where the owner sold an astonishing 102 books! Then on to Dartmouth College (Hanover, NH), a place I have grown to like very much, where they did a video recording of my presentation.
And two other incredibly exciting bits of news …
One is that Woman, Captain, Rebel in now available in Iceland. I’m so very happy that Icelanders can now get it. (I hope one day it will get translated into Icelandic!)
Finally, for Women’s History Month, Hudson News, the world’s largest operator of airport newsstands—yes, the bookstores that also sell those last-minute peanuts and other snacks we all buy—has selected Woman, Captain, Rebel as one of their featured books to be displayed at all their airport stores in March!
My brother saw this display when he recently caught a flight at Sea-Tac Airport.
