Ghosts of Book Fairs Past

Posted on by Teagan Riordain Geneviene

Saturday, December 20, 2025

Hello, everyone.  It’s still unusually warm here, and Santa hasn’t suited up yet.  He’s just hanging out with the cacti and watching reruns of old Christmas shows.  Although, he gave me the idea to rerun something myself.  At the end of every post, I feature one of my books.  If you visit via the WordPress reader, you’ve probably never noticed that.  Actually, since 2012, I have published 46 titles on Amazon.

Santa has the spirit of Christmas in July

Along the way, I’ve promoted a lot of indie authors individually.  I’ve even done some book fairs, where I showcased several.  Those are a lot of work.  Today, while Santa watches reruns, I’m working up a rerun of my own, by dipping into some of my old book fairs and sharing the older books of indie authors — from those posts.  I remind you that e-books are great stocking stuffers, and you don’t have to worry whether they’ll arrive before the holiday.

So, step into my retro elevator and let’s visit the different departments (genres) in this virtual department store.  Going up!

Notes: Don’t read anything into the different sizes of the images. I’ve just copied from the various old posts.

  2. Teagan, I love this idea. Reruns with purpose and generosity. The way you keep lifting up indie authors, not just your own work, says so much about the kind of creative ecosystem you believe in. And you’re right: e-books are the perfect stress-free stocking stuffers. Thank you for continuing to make space for other voices while Santa enjoys his cactus-side break. You are a wonderful support and encouragement to our community. Sending hugs on speedy wings to you and the Scoobies.

  3. I love this concept of a virtual department store, Teagan. Lots of familiar authors here, but lots of new-to-me folks as well. A great way to “book” some plans for gift giving any time of year!

  4. All look like wonderful books, Teagan, and the poetry collection, Poet’s Touch has such a lovely cover… as well as D.L. Finn’s An Unusual Island. I am reading Denise’s Christmas Collection 2, hoping to share my review next week. 🎄 Thank you for this lovely fair round up! 😊

  9. I am so honored to be including in this groups of books/authors, Teagan. Thank you! And I loved the inclusion of Twiggy, one of my favorite dogs that I’ve never met, in the illustration of The Eternal Road! You are one clever gal! Ear scratches to the Scoobies! What a fun post!

    1. Hi, Kamal — it was my pleasure. Santa… LOL, I’ve always gotten a kick out of old images of Santa in warmer climates, with shorts, or the one for Hawaii where he delivers presents via surfboard. Happy holidays to you too. Hugs.

  11. Wow, Teagan First of all I didn’t realize you had 46 titles on Amazon. What a marvel. Secondly I want to tanks you fro the lovely fair and can’t help but be taken by the composite you created of the Oldsmobile and Twiggy. Thank you so much and Merry Christmas. Hugs

    1. Thank you kindly, John. Admittedly that 46 includes the 14 novelettes of Dead of Winter, when I published it as a series… Although the past couple of years, simply dealing with Amazon at all is as difficult as writing a book. LOL.
      It’s my pleasure to include one of your books. It was fun to reuse that image with Twiggy. Hugs winging back to you.

  12. Great ideas, Teagan. Thanks for including mine in the list, and thanks for showing a few I didn’t know about (more likely forgot).

    I hope you have a wonderful weekend as we get closer to Christmas.

  15. What a lovely idea, Teagan, and thanks for including my YA series! It’s rainy here but not quite wintery yet. Have lots of fun over the coming days, big hugs and love to the Scoobies as well. ♥
