Goslings across Vermont, and booksellers across America, here I come. This first time author is going to the big city to hock a book. I'm flying out to Los Angeles tomorrow morning for Book Expo America, a big fancy show for the publishing industry. I'll be there to sign advanced reading copies to help promote Made From Scratch with people from Storey. Which, I'm kinda excited to do. Everything here at the homestead is prepared for the trip. Neighbors are watering the garden and watching over the rabbits and poultry. Jazz and Annie are at a Kennel in Bennington, breaking my heart. Hopefully I'll update from there with pictures of me kicking back sidecars with Alec Baldwin and Jamie Lee Curtis... but in reality, I'll just be at a folding table in a convention center. But I'm bringing my fiddle and a good attitude, what more could a Vermonter possibly need?
Good luck! Keep your chin up! Those things can be hard on the psyche! Just remember all those people are interesting and wonderful underneath their skins and you've got quite a tale to tell them!
I'm sorry I missed your signing, but I grabbed a copy of Made from Scratch when I was at the Storey booth. I'm about halfway through and I'm loving it! It's very inspiring.
Enjoy the story of a young writer living in Washington County with her fancy dogs, sheep, lots of chickens, fiber & meat rabbits, geese, ducks, turkeys, a hive and a garden. Expect to hear a lot about mountain music, the civil war, local food, and my friends along the way. It's a big time folks.

Best wishes. Can't wait til I get my copy.
you're kind of a big deal.
We're all with you there in spirit, standing behind you grinning and applauding. Can you hear us whispering? "That's our Jenna." Damn we're proud.
Ditto on the old man & his dog.
