On Sunday, January 20, 2013 I had the wonderful opportunity to attend a book signing at A Real BookStore in Fairview, Texas, just north of Dallas. Was this signing close? Not exactly. I made the 4.5 hour (300 miles) trip by car and stayed overnight with a friend in Sherman, Texas which is just over 20 minutes away from the book store. I […]
