A few months ago, I was asked by a church staff member if I would be willing to participate in an afternoon get-together sometime in the summer where I could share about being a writer. The person who asked me coordinates our church’s homeschool support group, so I thought it would be for a small, intimate gathering of homeschooling parents and children. I agreed, and marked my calendar with the date. A few weeks before the scheduled day, I was surprised when our media staff showed a mini-promotional announcement before church. It featured one of my books! What I thought would be a small affair, was now a churchwide open invitation. Yikes!
So how do you prepare for a bigger-than-expected event?
