Hi! I wanted to tell you my dad and stepmother met at one of your book signings, and have been together now 12 years. My little brother is named after you, and him and my little sister wouldn’t exist if not for your work. So thank you!! :)

You are so welcome! There’s a special warm feeling about meeting children whose parents met in my signing lines. 

I love how this implies that it’s not an isolated incident 🙂

It definitely isn’t. At most long signings these days I meet a child or two whose parents tell me they met in a signing line, long ago. (I’ve met no children yet who were conceived in a signing line, though, at least not to the best of my knowledge.)
