I could not love everything about this more!!! As you know, I was in NYC right after you (not my fault! I TRIED to be in NYC right at the same time! ;)), and I had fun reading through your own experiences and comparing them to mine. (I also saw the big tree and lots of Mariah!!!). And you're so right about independent bookstores and about finding ways to make things fun for YOU. A good reminder!!

I'm so glad you have fun on your tours! I would (as a person on the introvert/extrovert cusp) it would be so nice to see and meet people who like your work, like we do!

What a great blog post. I loved reading about your travels for your new book! Christmastime in New York is a dream! I'm not an author, but think your advice is so lovely. Make connections and don't worry about making sales. Wonderful.

Thanks for the advice! I’m definitely an obsessive planner and too prone to comparison, so your reminder to make things fun comes at exactly the right time. It was a pleasure chatting with you and commiserating about pass pages, and I’m glad New York treated you so well. :-)
