October Media Activities

October has been filled with swirls of activities.

Friday the 6th I was an invited guest to the American Library Association Author's Luncheon at their annual conference at Navy Pier in Chicago.

Monday the 9th, the local tv station (Channel 20) in Springfield, Illinois did a special segment on "Lost Survivor". During the show I learned that one of the local anchors, Jerry Lambert had served in Vietnam.

Tuesday the 10th, I was a guest on the Sam Madiona-Radio Talk Show. A woman called in who had bought the book at the local Barnes and Noble book store. She raved about the book, talked about how it helped her understand what her love one had went through and recommended that everyone buy the book. It was great. I wanted her name to take her on tour.

Wednesday the 11th I was a guest on the Pam Furr radio talk show in Springfield. We were in the radio's downtown studio on 5th street. It is in a room with a large window facing the street. People would pass, wave, make faces and give thumbs up. Very interactive.

Saturday the 21st I was one of the 30 accomplished Illinois Authors at the Illinois Woman's Press Association Book Fair at the Chicago Cultural Center.
