Woman Shares Video of Author Sitting Alone at Book Signing. Now, His Book Is a Bestseller
Jonathan Stanley was sitting at a table at his local Barnes & Noble in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., promoting his book Purposeful Performance: The Secret Mix of Connecting, Leading, and Succeeding. Although a stack of books sat in front of him, only a few people had stopped by to chat, purchase a book and get a copy signed. As Stanley, who wrote his book after losing his job, sat there, mom of three and content creator Taylor Dinelli, who was shopping at the store with her 4-year-old daughter, Ella, noticed the author sitting alone. She couldn't help but feel sympathy for him, seeing that no one had approached him about his book since they had arrived. She pulled out her phone and recorded a quick video of the scene before Ella began asking questions, intrigued by who he was, why he was there and what he was doing.
