Ashley Crookham's Writing

I Was Just So Lonely is heading out into the world, and I’m bringing it to two local spots that mean a lot to me.

May 16 · Oriental 11AM–2PM at A Story Runs Through It, hosted by the Pamlico Arts Council

I’ll be signing copies and doing something a little extra here — talking about the local places that inspired or appeared in the book. If you’ve ever wondered which spots made it onto the page, this is your chance to find out.

May 30 · New Bern 11AM–1PM at Next Chapter Books and Art

This one has a special twist: Next Chapter is actually mentioned in the book. Walking in to sign copies there will be a full-circle moment I’ve been looking forward to. Can’t make it in person? They’ll have copies available in store.

I hope to see familiar faces and make some new ones. These events are exactly what the book is about, after all.
