There was food and drinks and Amy Rice, the VP for marketing, met me and introduced me to bank officials and customers.I thought this would be an hour where, like in the bookstores, I would sit and sign books.Wrong.
For more than two hours, I met and talked with people about writing, Key West, my book, and living in Florida.This was an opportunity worth killing for (at least in fiction) because more than 70 people receive copies of my books, courtesy of the bank, and that's 70 people I probably wouldn't have reached otherwise.And, if I am lucky, that's 70 people who will buy my sequel, when it comes out. (And maybe Amy and Joe will invite me back to sign the sequel!)

Well, Amy and Joe had told me they ordered 100 copies for the bank signing.
