Bay Area Author Visit

Just came back from a trip to the Bay Area!  Thank you so much to San José Public Library for hosting an author visit!  I absolutely loved connecting with the San José community.

I also reunited with old friends, made new ones and met Instagram friends in person.  So many good books, so many wonderful conversations, so many sunny drives (October heat wave!) and so much good food (shout out to Breadbelly for their exceptional kaya toast).  Thank you to everyone who made my stay in the Bay so memorable!

Author Visits 2023-2024

Children's book author visits for schools and libraries in Orange County, Los Angeles, San Diego, Southern California, Northern California and the United States.

I’m booking in-person and virtual author visits for the 2023-24 school year!  To read about the different kinds of presentations I give and to request an author visit at your school or library, read my profile on Authors Out Loud’s website. 🖊️📚

I also just baked pumpkin gluten-free blondies.  They came out a touch cakier because of the addition of pumpkin, so I’ll have to sort that out in the next bake.  But!  They are still delicious!  Two secret ingredients I added that I think really takes them over the top: chopped Green & Black white chocolate and a tablespoon of boiled apple cider.

Usually it’s blazing hot here in September, but the weather has strangely taken a turn for the cold and gray.  It’s got me thinking of all things fall, of course.  I’d love to hear your favorite fall eats and sweets! 🍁
