On Tour

by Debby Giusti

I'll be on tour this weekend with the Knight Agency. If you live in Georgia and can make any of the events, please stop by and say hello!

Live too far away? I'll take pictures and post them on my next blog, June 17th!

Here's the info:

Knight Agency Book Signing Summer Tour Extravaganza!!
If you are going to be in the Atlanta area in early June, you don't want to miss the fabulous signing events that we are planning beginning June 5th!! The tour line-up includes Deidre Knight, an award-winning paranormal romance author who is also president of The Knight Agency, along with USA Today bestselling author Jennifer St. Giles, Debby Giusti, Shannon K. Butcher and debut author Maria Geraci!

This is not your ordinary book signing. Three of the events will feature a "How To Get Published Q&A," followed by a one-on-one meet and greet with the authors during the signing portion. See details below!

The Knight Agency Presents: How To Get Published Q&A and Book Signing
Instead of lounging during the lazy days of summer, now is the time to reach for that dusty manuscript or half-written chapter and get to work!

The journey from manuscript to published novel can be difficult to navigate, and we know you must wonder what it's like when you finally land that elusive contract. Why don't you give yourself an edge? Ask national bestselling authors represented by one of the region's top literary agencies about their adventures in the publishing business. Our experienced panel has been there and can answer all your burning questions about making waves in the often times intimidating publishing pond. The panelists will include award-winning paranormal romance author, Deidre Knight, who has sold numerous titles to top-tier publishing houses as president of the agency, along with an all star line-up including USA Today bestselling author Jennifer St. Giles, Maria Geraci, Debby Giusti and Shannon K. Butcher. These authors have released titles through major houses such as Simon & Schuster, Penguin and Harlequin.

Meet the authors in person at the book signing following the Q&A portion.

“WHAT HAPPENED TO MY BABY?"
Wealthy heiress Eve Townsend is close to death. But before she dies, she has to know: what happened to the daughter she gave up for adoption twenty-four years before? Did she inherit her mother’s life-threatening disease? Medical researcher Pete Worth is ready to find answers by tracking her down. And when he finally locates Meredith Lassiter, he finds her widowed, pregnant and on the run. The loan sharks who killed her husband want her dead…and Pete is the only one standing in their way.

Winner of the 2008 Daphne du Maurier Award for Inspirational Suspense, medical technologist Debby Giusti writes spine-chilling Christian fiction for Steeple Hill. PROTECTING HER CHILD, her fifth book and the second story in her Magnolia Medical series, was released in May. CHRISTMAS PERIL will feature her novella YULE DIE in December, and KILLER HEADLINE will follow in February 2010. Her first three books, NOWHERE TO HIDE, SCARED TO DEATH and MIA: MISSING IN ATLANTA are available in hardcover by Thorndike. In addition to full-length fiction, Debby has written articles for numerous magazines, including Southern Lady, Woman’s World, Our Sunday Visitor, Army and Family. For over twelve years, she served on the editorial advisory board of ADVANCE for Administrators of the Laboratory and wrote extensively on emerging infectious diseases for that magazine.

From looking at a map it looks like you are going to be covering a lot of territory. Hope everything goes well and you have a happy and prosperous trip. Wish I could meet up with you somewhere but Georgia is a fairly long trip from coastal South Texas.

Hi Ellen!!! Yes, you're too far to make this one. Will you be at ACFW this fall? Would love to meet in person. Thanks for always stopping by!

Hope you have blue skies and lots of sunshine! We're hot and humid in GA! :)

I have wondered about ACFW conventions but don't know anything about them for those who are readers and not writers.
