Calling all Clemson women alumni & friends!

Hey, y’all!

I’m thrilled to announce a special “Orange Shoes” event on Monday, March 30th from 7:30 - 9:00 PM with the Clemson Women’s Alumni Council at M. Judson Booksellers in Greenville, South Carolina! My fellow historical novelist—and Clemson Tiger—Cathy Rigg (Class of ’82) and I (Class of ’00) will be speaking on our recently-released historical novels—That Which Binds Us and The Miniaturist’s Assistant—and we’ll share stories of our time at Clemson University, and more.

Your ticket gets you entry to the event, a copy of Cathy’s book (mine will also be for sale at the event, just not included in the price), and a signature cocktail/mocktail. This is a private Clemson Women’s event, so it won’t be featured on the M. Judson website. Click here for link to the tickets.

Remember, this “Orange Shoes” event is for Clemson women AND FRIENDS, so grab your pals and come on out!

And in honor of the occasion, here are some photos of my time at Clemson in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Did we ever have a ball.

Go Tigers!
