We’re Baking up a Book Tour

February 28, 2025 By Becky Wade

Dani Pettrey and I will be hitting the Texas highways this April! I just released Uneasy Street this month and Dani’s Two Seconds Too Late will come out in April. We wanted to do something special to celebrate and so we’re baking up a book tour. 🙂 To make things even sweeter, our writer friends Natalie Walters and Lynne Gentry will be joining us at some of the locations!

That’s Natalie Walters on the left, Dani in the dress near the middle, and me second from right with wonderful reader friends and fellow authors this past November.
This photo of Dallas/Ft Worth area writers was taken earlier this month! I’m second from right and Lynne Gentry is left of me in this photo.

Here’s our itinerary…

We’d love to see you at one of our book tour stops! If you don’t live anywhere near Texas, but know someone who does, we’d really appreciate it if you’d let them know about our tour.

Here’s more detailed information about each event:

Friday, April 4th, Longview, 11:30am — Becky Wade & Dani Pettrey — Booksigning at Mardel at 305-B W Loop 281

Saturday, April 5th, Dallas, 10am-12pm — Becky Wade, Dani Pettrey, Natalie Walters & Lynne Gentry — Books & Brunch: Meet the Authors at Park Cities Baptist Church 3933 Northwest Pkwy.

You definitely don’t need to buy or bring a book of ours to attend! Please, just come to hang out.

Please, just come to hang out. But if you would like to add a book of ours to your collection, please order it ahead of time from this B&N to ensure they’ll have it ready for you to pick up at this day/time.

A head’s up! Dani will be visiting additional locations in Arizona and Iowa, but I’ll let her fill you in on those in a separate post.

Readers, have you taken part in an author’s book tour in the past? If you’re an author who’s been on a book tour, do you have any suggestions for us?

    Looks like a super packed schedule, Becky! You will have so much fun, and likely be exhausted afterwards. I sure would be! My daughter is finishing her PhD at A&M in College Station. I’ll have to let her know that you’ll be in her neck of the woods. Maybe she can share with some of her church friends.

      Thanks, Karen! We’d love it if your daughter would spread the word to her friends about our library stop in College Station.

    I was hoping your tour might include San Angelo, Texas. There is no major book store anymore but San Angelo has an awesome library and a few large churches. Maybe it will be considered for another tour. I live in a small town 45 miles south of San Angelo. Have a successful tour and God bless your tour.

    I’m so sad that I’ll be out of town when you do the Dallas event!
