TONIGHT @ 8PM - ​FUNDAMENTALS OF BEING A GOOD GIRL TOUR @ FOUR SEASONS BOOKS

GOOD GIRLS, QUICK ANNOUNCEMENT.
Real-life rom-com plot twist: our authors’ flights have been delayed. The event is still happening tonight, just with a slightly later start time. Think of it as a bonus pre-party.
The good news: doors are still opening at 6 PM and we are turning the Romance Book Fair into a full girls’ night out situation with romance trivia, shopping, and more while we wait for Julie Murphy and Sierra Simone to arrive.
So grab your bestie and settle in.

UPDATED EVENT SCHEDULE
Frank Arts Center – Shepherd University
260 University Drive, Shepherdstown, WV
Doors + Romance Book Fair: 6:00 PM
Girls’ Night Out Romance Trivia & Pre-Party: 6:30 PM
Author Event Begins: 8:00 PM

Come early, shop the book fair, play trivia, meet new book friends, and enjoy the pre-event party before class is officially in session.
IMPORTANT SWAG UPDATE
The reversible dust jackets are fashionably late.
As in… not here at all tonight.
Here’s how we’ve got you covered:
Local attendees: Your dust jackets will be available for pickup at Four Seasons Books next week.
Out-of-town attendees: Please email Julia for pickup or shipping instructions.
We promise they are worth the wait.

PARKING
Lot G, right next to the venue, is FREE.
Downtown metered parking is FREE after 6 PM.
Please give yourself time to park and walk.

CHECK-IN
Check-in and book pickup still begin at 6:00 PM on site.
We know delays are never ideal, but we are turning this into a full-on girls’ night out experience and cannot wait to hang with you tonight.

About the Authors

Julie Murphy splits her time between North Texas and Kansas with her husband, who loves her, and her cats, who tolerate her. She is the author and coauthor of over twenty books for all ages including Dumplin’ (now a Netflix original film) and the Christmas Notch series cowritten with her best friend, Sierra Simone. When Julie isn’t writing, she’s hunting for the perfect slice of cheese pizza, discovering a new hobby that she will soon discard, and planning her next travel adventure. ​
Sierra Simone is a USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author and former library employee (who spent too much time reading romance novels at the information desk). Her notable works include Priest, American Queen, and Salt Kiss. She lives with her husband, teens, and two giant dogs in the Kansas City area.
​This Event Will Sell Out. ​
Tickets are non-refundable book + admission bundles; please contact Four Seasons Books to arrange pick up/shipping in the event that you can no longer attend the event.

Can't Make It? We Ship!
