The weekend in Nashville was fun. What a great city — big and exciting but with small town warmth.
Country music fans are some of the nicest music fans in the world. As they waited in the hot sun to be let into Rocketown for Sara’s Fan Party, they said nothing when VIP guest went in ahead of them. Same with Josh Turner’s fans. They were even helpful. So, big shout out to country fans!
Sara’s fan party was energetic and packed. About half way in, she introduced the book and called me up on stage. We plugged the book and I said what a great team we made. She was so easy to work with — we had a lot of similar ideas.
Cool for me, too, was meeting a couple of players on the University of Alabama’s softball team. I’d just been watching them on TV a few weekends ago. I was and am a fan! I got a picture with them, and gave them an Advance Reader Copy of The Sweet By and By.
Saturday I attended Josh Turner’s Fan Party. I’m “new” to him, but have come to love his music. He was so casual and fun at the party. Good banter.
I had to leave before I could meet him, but I wanted to get to the airport on time or Budget would charge me for another day of car rental. And don’t get me started on the fiasco for the weekend. Yikes!
Listen, go over to Sara‘s site and sign up for a chance to win a trip to Nashville for the launch party. Also, check out Country Weekly in the next few weeks. Their photographer was there and got a picture of me with Sara!
Blessings.
