July -Downtown Summer Madness & Block Party – Blackfoot, ID
I had a wonderful time at this year’s Downtown Summer Madness & Block Party in Blackfoot! The event brought together an amazing variety of local vendors, family activities, and a vibrant community atmosphere — all under the summer sun.
It was such a joy to connect with new readers, share about my latest cozy and fantastical reads. My booth featured exclusive market editions, bookish merch, and a cozy book café display that made the day even more magical.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by, chatted, bought a book, or simply shared a smile. I’m so grateful for these opportunities to meet readers in person and be part of such a supportive local scene.
If you missed this event, I’ll be at more markets soon — stay tuned!
