I've done many book club visits over my career, some in-person and some remotely via speakerphone or Skype. I prefer the in-person visits (they usually give me wine & food!), but I've enjoyed them all. I also provide book club discussion questions for each of my books on my website and bring them with me for the book we're discussing, in case the group wants to use them.Beth Groundwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13999372882748655834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529128955266044151.post-9504392405346603912013-08-07T20:16:41.470-04:002013-08-07T20:16:41.470-04:00A CARVED themed book club... sweet tea and lemon p...A CARVED themed book club... sweet tea and lemon pound cake comes to mind (it's in there!) as for dressing up like the characters...
