Glamour's official release was November 18. I kicked off the day with a writing workshop for students at Edmond Memorial High School. It was a lot of fun to teach again. However, I'd forgotten just how exhausting it could be.
The students' enthusiasm was impressive and inspirational. Several students told me about novel ideas they were working on. I didn't hear a single idea that wouldn't make a fantastic book. Those teens are creative. Here they are during the workshop.
The library has been renovated since I taught at EMHS. Doesn't it look magnificent?Outside the library was a bulletin board about my book. So cool.
Creative writing teacher Kelly Bristow and librarian Brenda Price organized the visit. Back in my teaching days, I organized a few author visits so I know how much work it is. From my side, everything appeared seamless. They did a beautiful job. I loved that I was able to return to where so much of Glamour actually started.

That's so awesome! Can't wait for you to come to our building. We've got to get that date set!
The Okmulgee library contacted HAWK and the forwarded the message to me. When I responded, I mentioned you, Stephanie, Little Holly,and Ange in hopes that we could coordinate. Each of you has mentioned doing something. I thought it would be nice if we could make it work together somehow.
