Atticus Books & Teahouse
In all the holiday excitement, I almost forgot to share my book signing experience with you. Obviously, I was excited and a little nervous. After all, it’s not every day someone has a book signing. I should not have worried because most of the people there were locals who apparently hang out at Atticus Books and Tea House to drink tea, eat scones and hear the musicians, but it wasn’t a complete bust, and I did finally get to sign.
The musicians were good, the crowd jovial, except for one cranky old woman who said my book was depressing and so was the music!!! She didn’t even read the back of the book, much less the inside, and the music was a wide mixture, including some upbeat Christmas. I was glad when she left, and everyone else probably was too. But before she left, she was bragging about being a Sagittarius who spoke her mind, and then I found out we share the same birthday!!! Urggggggggg!
As you can see from the photo, the place is quaint. The inside is quite Bohemian, with all sorts of “bookish things” one might not find elsewhere—a fun, cozy place for a cold, Saturday afternoon in the mountains.

Paragraphs on Padre 
Ok, so now you really are famous. I’ve seen your name in lights (well not actually lights, but you know what I mean). Hope some of the other reviews will be held a little closer to home. Maybe the Galleria?
I’m with Susan. When will we have a local book signing?
I know, I need to get out of these mountains and into the flatlands. I’m hoping I’ll get there in the spring!! Thanks. Happy New Year.
For you readers out there, I got to see this bookstore yesterday. It is indeed quaint and worth experiencing. It was easy to see my friend Cindy sitting there in a spot by the front door. This trip to Ruidoso has been great for promoting your book and it was sure fun to visit. Thanks for everything!
