3 Minutes of Fame: My First TV Interview (Good Day Atlanta)

Good Day Atlanta went well... and really fast!! It was a 3 minute segment so I was not able to get much in. We mostly covered my inspiration for the book and how it is really timely for young girls today. Unfortunately, nothing about "A Book Is Born" on the air but I was prepared just in case. The good thing is I now have a great relationship with the producers and hosts thanks to my 3 year old "publicist", Kennedy. She charmed the pants off of everyone at the station! They want her to come back so there is my "in" for "A Book Is Born" (and other YBS Guides) in the future! Note to any of you planning a television debut, take cute kids to the green room!!
I have not watched the interview yet. All who saw it live and online said I did well and looked great. I am a little skeptical...not exactly thrilled that my television debut was with loads of post-baby weight, but all in all, it felt great! Hey... see for yourself: WATCH CHRISTIE ON GOOD DAY ATLANTA
This morning, I checked my website traffic... 40 hits it in the past 24 hours and several subscribers to my Author Blog and Big Sister's Wisdom blog! I have a book signing this weekend that was mentioned on the show... I am looking forward to a great turnout.
