INDIANA – Bestselling author Rhonda Parker Taylor is meeting her readers directly by participating in the innovative National Authors in Grocery Stores program.
The initiative, designed to make literature more accessible, has brought Parker Taylor’s suspense novel, Crossroads, to various JayC Grocery Stores across Southern Indiana.
Parker Taylor, an academic researcher and entrepreneur, has been signing copies of her book and personally engaging with community members. The tour has included stops in Columbus, Edinburgh, Seymour, Bedford, North Vernon, and Brownstown.
Her novel, Crossroads, is a suspenseful story of “murder, envy, betrayal, and resilience,” and has received praise from notable figures, including Golden Globe-nominated actress Mariel Hemingway and bestselling author J.J. Hebert.
“The National Authors in Grocery Stores program breaks down barriers between writers and readers,” said Parker Taylor. “It allows us to connect personally, foster community, and inspire conversations that extend beyond the novel.” She added that the willingness of JayC to host local authors “gives us the chance to share our stories directly with readers and reminds everyone how powerful community support can be.”
Crossroads (ISBN: 9781958729533) is available for purchase in paperback for $18.99 from major retailers like Amazon and Barnes & Noble, as well as at her signing events.
