Oceana NEX Book Signing

Hello Everyone,

I want to say that I had a great time signing at the Navy Exchange in Oceana. The staff was friendly and most of the customers (male and female) stopped by the table. I will definitely be going there again. I am working on a date in August. Well, I took Fire and Desire, as well as Vegas Bites Back and sold out of both of them. I was doing the happy dance. I never take my daughter (7 years old) with me to a book signing, but it was Mother's Day and she always asks to come with me, so I took her along. She and I had a good time. She was able to see that mommy works hard for the money. I frequently take a nap directly after a signing. It's thrilling to meet new readers and tell them about my books, but I am exhausted afterwards. I have friend's who don't like signings because of the constant rejections that happens as you try and put yourself out there. They are tooo long to mention the comments and author gets, but if you want to know some of them, shoot me an e-mail. Especially, if you are a new author and have never signed before. ;)
Well, I ran a Mother's Day raffle to all who purchased a book, it was a gift pack of full size Victoria's Secret Pure Seduction. It smells wonderful. Well, I had a winner and it was Amber.
Okay, it is time for me to sign off for now, but I will post later this week again. May is a busy month for Monique. If you have not had a chance. Don't forget to stop by Phaze and pick up your print copy of Healing Hearts.
