The King County Library Gala
I was so honored to be invited to be a guest author last weekend at the King County Library’s Literary Lions Gala in Bellevue. The event raised more than $250,000 for literacy programs, and I had the chance to mingle with some amazing authors, including Amy Hatvany, Carol Casella, Nancy Horan, Pierce Brown, Cat Patrick, and many more. My favorite part? Getting to meet one of my literary idols, Amy Tan. (Oh, and also the fun author group selfie from the stage!) What a night!
Two comments on the above: My skirt looks too short and I don’t know why I’m making this face! Oops.
Amy Tan is as lovely as she is talented. She was a delight.
The first thing Amy Tan said to me, even before I introduced myself, was “aren’t you the author with three young boys at home?” I was so amazed that she knew about me at all!
An amazing group of authors on one stage.

That’s amazing that she knew all about you!
Everyone I’ve introduced your books too, love them… keep writing!
