Announcing my Tiny Worlds Book Tour
With book talks, painting workshops, and a traveling art exhibition!
Hello, friends! Tiny Worlds of the Appalachian Mountains will be published in just two weeks (September 1st), and I’ve busy planning a book tour and traveling art exhibition in conjunction with the release. All the dates are listed below. Space is limited for most of these events, so be sure to secure your ticket ahead of time. I’m really excited about the traveling exhibit, which will feature dozens of original paintings from my manuscript. It will feel like stepping inside my book!
If you’ve been waiting to get a copy of my book, I’d be SO grateful if you pre-ordered instead of purchasing after the publication date. Why? Bookstores are more likely to carry a book that does well during the pre-order phase. Your pre-order helps Tiny Worlds get out into the Big Wide World!

2-4 PM
Book launch party! Help me kick off my book tour with live music, an art-making station, and a book talk at 3pm.

Hey Rosalie, sorry to ask again, but I don’t see anything on the calendars of either the Va Wildlife Center or the SAC for Oct 14. I have emailed the wildlife center but no response. I live on the other end of Va so we need to plan ahead for including you in a trip. I can be patient but don’t want to get shut out. I know you must be extremely busy. I got my copy of your book. What a treat! Rhoda
Hooray!! I'm curious if you would consider scheduling a visit to Shaver's Creek for a book talk with our nature journaling (or wider) community? I know people would be eager to attend!
