By Dani Greer The morning started bright and early at the base of Pikes Peak in Colorado. We stayed overnight at the beautiful Glen Eyrie Castle. Originally the home of city founding father, William Jackson Palmer, the canyon offers 800 hundred acres of hiking trails and wildlife preserve, so a peaceful, pleasant stroll through the area was a marvelous beginning to the day.
I was representing Little Pickle Press at the annual holiday bazaar for Holy Theophany Church nearby, an American Orthodox Catholic church which also owns the most popular coffee house and book store in town, Agia Sophia.
Here's the LPP table at the show. I'm happy to report that the books were a hit with the patrons, especially What Does It Mean To Be Present. In fact, Agia Sophia ordered books for the shop. Being an environmentally conscious congregation that even has an organic vegetable garden on their grounds for the surrounding community, they were particularly impressed with the eco-conscious production and printing of the books and posters. I felt we were all on the same page, and I was pleased to be representing LPP and sharing the books and company concepts with the church members!
In California, Katy Kenney, LPP's Director of Sales, presented the books at the Lollipopalooza event.
What's coming up next? New book releases, and the blog book tour starting tomorrow for Sofia's Dream, with marvelous blog hosts and contests, so stop by daily. You can order the books at http://www.littlepicklepress.com and remember: free shipping until November 24 - don't miss out on that - get your pre-order in under the wire!

It was an eventful, fun day for Little Pickle Press! There was a lot of interest in the three "What Does It Mean" books and in the two books that will be here next week. I really enjoyed being a part of the program with the Lollipopalooza musicians...I'm still singing "lolly pop, lolly pop, oh la la" their opening tune! Maybe tomorrow my motown songs will surface in my head! The books got great reviews and I met librains, teachers, parents, little pickles and aspriring authors! It was a fun day and I felt very welcome.
Thank you, Dani and Katy, for being our brand ambassadors and spreading the word about Little Pickle Press and our products.
What was especially great is that the books resonated with adults! Several adults who were overworked really loved What Does It Mean To Be Present? and the new books generated quite a bit of interest, too. It was really great to be able to "talk it up" to the public.
Love the photos and the detailed recap of out great LPP team out and about. The display table are fabulous, crisp and very very enticing! Well done!
