Lynn, I don't take copies of my book when I speak. If the organization wants to include a signing, they will order a case or two from my publisher and I'll sign them. I know, I'm not much of a self-promoter but that's just the way I am. I've promoted my book in other ways but I've never felt right walking into a speaking gig, carrying a box of my books. Probably because I've known more than a few money hungry speakers that only concentrate on the almighty buck. I hate book store signings with a passion. Just hate them!
