Join me at the Horizon Bistro stage for a discussion of my latest novel, TRUE PLACES, set in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Join me at Lexington’s iconic bookstore, The Bookery, to celebrate the release of TRUE PLACES. The book is partially set in this town, making for an extra special evening. Both the hardcover and trade paperback versions will be available for signing. Everyone is welcome!

The panel is Secrets and Betrayals: Fiction.

Bryn Chancellor (Sycamore), Marisa De Los Santos (I’ll Be Your Blue Sky), and I (All the Best People) will discuss the secrets and betrayals their characters face. Please join us!

The Virginia Festival of the Book is a 5-day festival (18-22 March) of mostly FREE LITERARY EVENTS that are open to the public as we honor book culture and promote reading and literacy.

This wonderful book club has been meeting since 1969! I've been honored to have them read my debut, House Broken, and now we will be discussing All the Best People. Can't wait! It's a large group--30 or so--and they are incisive and thoughtful readers. 

It's holiday shopping time! Lexington's downtown devotes a special day to support local business and I'm delighted to be signing copies of all three of my books on Saturday, 2 December. I'll also be convincing everyone to buy one of my favorite books of the year, Last Christmas in Paris by Heather Webb and Hazel Gaynor. 

I'm delighted to have been asked to participate in this conference dedicated to helping aspiring and seasoned authors alike.  Interested in attending? Find all the information you need here.

ALL THE BEST PEOPLE is a Reading with Robin Pick! the on-line book club to discuss the story and chat with me convenes on the RWR Facebook page at 8 pm. Join us!

Bear Pond Books is my hometown bookstore, so I can always look forward to seeing familiar faces there. I'll be featuring my new book, ALL THE BEST PEOPLE, which is set in Vermont. What could be more perfect? Come chat with me!
