I’m pretty sure most how-to book* authors don’t go on book tours, but a gal can dream. After two solid years of writing and editing, it does seem like a book tour would be fun. I am pretty sure I would be tired of it in about a week, so perhaps it is better that I’m not the next Margaret Atwood.

Due to COVID there won’t be any in-person book events at all for the foreseeable future, but I am doing some virtual events to celebrate my book launch. The publication date is Tuesday, November 3rd. I’m hoping those of you in the USA see it as a positive event on an otherwise fraught day instead of remembering that my book dropped on Election Day 2020. Thanks for helping me with that mental restructuring. The book was supposed to be released on October 27th, but it missed the arrival date in the warehouse and got pushed back a week and I’m still having a bit of a hard time syncing my book release (a happy thing!) with Election Day (a huge unknown). There are people who are getting the book delivered early and if you’re one of the lucky ones, I hope you’re enjoying it.

It is coming! My book, The Art of Tapestry Weaving, from Storey Publishing, is in the United States now and will be shipping out to everyone by the (new) publication date of November 3.

I made this 3 minute video about the book to be used for bookstore launch events, but I thought you all might like to see it also.

(You knew that, didn't you. Sorry to overshare... kind of feels like a big deal still.) If you’re impatient, you can click over to the book page on my website to see some of the inside pages and read reviews HERE.

The book is called The Art of Tapestry Weaving. It is a tapestry techniques book that covers making a tapestry from the very beginning. It includes chapters about color and design as well as all the regular tapestry techniques. It was intended to help new weavers learn but also as a reference for people who have some experience in tapestry.
