My first fan mail – or why I’m like my mom and hoard anything that might bring me luck

I got my first fan ‘letter’ the other day, and it’s from South Africa of all places.  It was posted on my Facebook page, and reading it put – and kept – a huge smile on my face.  Learning that people are liking my book is one of the finest compliments I’ve ever received.

Of course, the Facebook post did raise another question: how did my book somehow land in the hands of someone on the other side of the world?  I have no idea, but I love how connected our world is becoming.
