First Book Signing

April 15th, 2010 by Regina Brett

 

Tonight I signed my name more times in one night than any other time in my life. I don't think that signature looked the same way twice. My handwriting leaves lots to be desired. The nuns used to call it chicken scratch.

 

The Plain Dealer hosted the first book signing and even fed the crowd, which could be why they were so kind and gracious. It was like a love fest. But then I suppose people who don't like you don't come to your book signings.

 

My daughter, husband, stepson and son-in-law came. I wore pearls in honor of Lesson 21.  A few women asked me to sign their book with this dedication: Wear the pearls. Yes, today is special enough to wear the good stuff.

I was so happy to meet you last night. You are truly a wonderful person. You signed my book with The Best is Yet to come! I once heard a story about a dying lady who asked the priest to make sure there was a fork in her coffin, of course he asked why her answer was ...when she was a child her mother would take her out to dinner after the main course her mother would tell her to keep her fork for the best was yet to come. Thank you again for all your inspiring words. Helen
