That Bookstore in Blytheville

Yesterday I had the wonderful opportunity to do a book signing at That Bookstore in Blytheville. It is an incredible store in Blytheville, AR, with lots of history. TBIB celebrated its 30th year in business in October. The list of authors who have held signings there is too long to list but a few recognizable names are John Grisham, Hillary Rodham Clinton and Lou Holtz. TBIB has a unique custom of having the author sign a wooden folding chair. There is a chair for each year. I was awed to read the names of those who had signed those chairs. And I was honored to add my name to the chair for 2006.

If you get a chance to visit this cultural icon, then please take the time to browse through its endless shelves. You will not be disappointed. You can also sign up on the TBIB website to receive a regular e-newsletter. It, too, is worth the effort.
