Ellen Byron, human sandwich board.
P.T. Barnum of the mystery world that I am, early on in my author career I decided, what better way to get the word out about my books than to wear the covers emblazoned across my chest?

Split-Second Decisions
A couple of months ago, I was driving to GotPrint in nearby Burbank to pick up yet another batch of my infamous swag. I reached an intersection where I faced the choice of going straight or making a right turn. As the light changed, I made the split-second decision to stay in my lane and continue driving straight ahead. I crossed the intersection and suddenly … Continue reading Split-Second Decisions

A Swag Blast from my TV Past
It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone in the mystery community who knows me that the minute I heard about authors making trading cards – authors Raquel V. Reyes, Daphne Silver, and Nicole Asselin to be specific – I was all in the idea. I made and ordered my own cards in about twenty minutes. Thus, I’ll soon add them to a supply of … Continue reading A Swag Blast from my TV Past
