Bourbon Land

What will Kentucky Book Festival visitors find on your table?
Visitors will find my 3 books, some entertaining stories of food and whiskey and possibly a bottle of bourbon.

Whom do you invite to stop by? Who will benefit from reading your book?
Anyone interested in cuisine, chefs, the beautiful narrative of food and of course Kentucky bourbon.

Could you please tell us something curious about you and/or your book?
The book cover was a much debated topic.  The original book cover was supposed to be a photo that is in the book but we decided last minute on the current cover art.  Can you guess which photo in the book was the original idea for the cover?

Is this your first time participating in Kentucky Book Festival? If yes – what are you looking forward to the most? If you’ve participated before – what was your favorite experience at the Festival?
This is my first time and I am looking forward to meeting people who are into books – we are a proud community and book lovers everywhere are special people.
