my Little Free Library runneth over with books!

April 15, 2016 By Talya Tate Boerner 11 Comments

Little Free Library Books!

What timing. A couple of weeks ago, I returned from Austin to find my Little Free Library almost completely empty. Sometimes the “take a book, leave a book” idea leaves my library out of balance, and that’s okay because—think about it—if you go for a walk and happen upon a Little Free Library that contains a book you want to read, you may not have another book with you to leave in its place. Understandable. It’s all good in the end because there are other times my book supply runneth over from donations from friends and neighbors.

Here’s where the good timing came into play… I also returned to find an entire box of books in my mail—a donation to my Little Free Library from my publisher. (So yes, I’m required to tell you I received free books but all opinions are my own.) The books were those published by SYP Publishing over the last few years. The variety is great, from fishing tales to suspense and thriller and every genre in between. Many are award-winning books from the Florida Authors and Publisher’s Association. (SYP is located in Tallahassee so that ‘splains the Florida connection.)

Of course now I have a dilemma because I want to read each book even though I already have a stack of books waiting for me.Continue Reading

The question I get asked most…

the question I get asked most

Today I’m going to answer the question I get asked most these days. And it’s the BEST QUESTION EVER! But first I need to say it—I’m a published author. Today is official release day. I know you’re tired of hearing about it, but I couldn’t let this day pass without some sort of update. This has been a whirlwind week so far with Pop-Up Book Readings all over Fayetteville and planning for both a real book launch party and a virtual party (not that a virtual party isn’t real). Join me HERE tonight from 7-8:30 CST and you’ll see how much fun virtual can be.

Today I thought I’d do a very short Q & A (only one question, see how short?) because I’ve been getting the same question over and over. And seriously, I don’t mind answering any question, especially this one(!), but I may be out of pocket today and here’s the answer all nice and tidy.Continue Reading

It’s Book Launch Eve and I have several book related things to talk about today (surprise, surprise) including a giveaway, launch parties, chocolate and wine!
