Pat Hodapp, the author of the Santa Fe Bucket List book, is the Director of the Santa Fe Library. She knows stuff. She knows stuff about Santa Fe. AND she knows stuff about books. She is also a newbie at book publishing but you would never know that by the way she tackles book promotion and her sales. She is a pro!

We say constantly, to promote a book you have to do radio, TV, magazines, newspapers, and the internet. Pat has done all of it. She has had booksignings. She knows everyone! The other thing that helps us track the Santa Fe Bucket List book’s success is sales on Amazon. It is the perfect book for tourists or residents who will have a visitor.

The reason so many people love the Santa Fe Bucket List book is because it is Pat’s personal loves of Santa Fe. There are stories, personal pictures, tips, and places that you want to go see.

The Ultimate Santa Fe Bucket List book came out in June and already it is one of the books that has made a name for itself. When you stop in the Main Santa Fe Library, downtown, ask if Pat is there and say hi!
