Walkin' Lawton in Annapolis


We had a wonderful book signing at Back Creek Books last week--until the power went out due to a local electrical grid malfunction. Nonetheless, the independent, charming bookstore was a fine venue for Walkin' Lawton.

Walkin' Lawton continues to sell well online.

More book events, in Florida and elsewhere, will occur next year. Stay tuned!
