As noted in the article, I have returned from my latest trip. Never in my life have I done back-to-back traveling like this before. Let me just say that air travel is not as much fun as it used to be.
Even though getting there (and back) was not half the fun, my experience at the No More Homeless Pets Conference and the subsequent visit to the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary was incredible. (I'm even in the closing video - http://video.bestfriends.org/media/p/1347.aspx)
I realize it has nothing to do with publishing, but if you are an animal lover and happen to be in Utah, you really should stop by the sanctuary. It's amazing and inspiring ;-)
What does relate to publishing is that I was invited to speak at the conference because of my book. I also exhibited at the conference, and I sold OUT of my book. It was a whirlwind of activity with people handing money over so quickly, I could barely record the sales in my ledger. Yes, speaking really does help your book sales!
If you are thinking about speaking about your book, I've shared a few tips on preparing for a presentation in the article.
Enjoy!
