It’s been quite a month of book festivals.

A note of thanks to all who stopped by to chat, tell stories, or buy my books. Those are the moments that make the time at the events worthwhile. Thanks to Belvidere, Randolph, New Providence and Passaic County.

Now it’s on to Collingswood, Easton and Woodbridge.
