Thanks for making my author event a successful Mom's Night Out!

I'm sending out a big thanks to the twenty fans who came out to hear me speak at Quail Ridge Books in Raleigh last night. After spending so many hours in solitude writing the book, meeting the real women who are reading my work is a real treat.

The bookstore managers were pleasantly surprised by the turnout. One of them said, "We were wondering how the women who really needed Mojo Mom would find a way to get free for the evening."
It's good to show that it is possible, and indeed vitally necessary, to carve out some time for ourselves! Speaking of which, next Thursday night, May 7, is National Mom's Nite Out--yet another chance to connect with friends. Check out their website for party ideas, local events, and online chats.
