Book Signing Event at Ernest and Hadley

I had a spectacular time in Tuscaloosa, Alabama last week at Ernest & Hadley Booksellers for my book signing event.  

Ernest & Hadley is a special place to me.  They hosted my very first book signing and have been avid supporters and fans of the Blanchard Witches series from the start!  I always feel so much love when there and their store has remarkable book selections in every genre.

We held the event outside on this glorious spring day.  I met so many wonderful people and saw a lot of familiar faces who are always so great to support me!  I think what I love most is that now as we are further into the series with the release of Book 3 STITCHES IN TIME, more people attend who have read all of the books and we can have lively discussion.  Of course I never divulge too much so as to ruin surprises for those just beginning the series.  However, I do try to sneak off privately with those caught all the way up so we can dish about the entire three books.

The Birth of The Blanchard Witches Book Series

Then in 2018 after selling my business and my son being in elementary school I began wondering what I was going to do now.  That was when I pulled out my dusty writing from the file cabinet I hadn't opened in a decade and reread my Blanchard story.  I decided to finish it...only it wasn't finished with me. The more I tried to wrap up the tale, the more ideas came to me.  I quickly realized THE BLANCHARD WITCHES OF DAIHMLER COUNTY was not "a book"...it was a series.  There was just far too much depth and texture to these people for them to fade away in one story. Soon the first book was complete but my fingers would not stop typing their further escapades.  Within six more months the second book was complete.  Th

A Little Blanchard Backstory...

Image
When the first book THE BLANCHARD WITCHES OF DAIHMLER COUNTY begins, the Blanchard family is already long established in the town of Daihmler. They've been here for generations, living in the white three story farmhouse with the wrap around porch and four story tower. Olympia Blanchard is in her seventies and though beloved by her daughters and grandchildren for being the sage old giver of wisdom--Olympia has lived quite a life her offspring are not completely aware of. In her youth, she and her sister Pastoria--and their lifelong friend Zelda, helped many people and saved many lives (and possibly the world) a time or two. Olympia has been married three times by the time readers meet her in Book One. Her first husband, John Windham died shortly after the birth of their third child. She then married a fond acquaintance named Martin Caswell, hoping he might be a substitute father to her young girls. But he died shortly after. Later in life when she was already a grandmother, O
