Drop by and say Hi
On Saturday the 28th of August, I’m going to be at Logan North Library so drop by and say Hi.
I’ll be with the romantic by cynical Trent Jamieson, author of Death Most Definite, the pocket rocket Kylie Chan, author of the Dark Heaven series, the lovely Louise Cusack author and mentor, and Anthony Puttee author of the Johnny Marsh books.
We’ll be talking about promoting your books and this is all part of Logan North Library’s month of Speculative Fiction. So you are sure to see Darth Vader and a Storm Trouper or two!
Friday the 13th – perfect date to launch Trent’s book
Here we are at Trent’s book launch. That’s Marianne de Pierres on the left, Trent with his books, then I’m behind him in the pink beret (was having a bad hair day, the curls would not behave) and Kylie Chan.
It was a great evening over at Avid Reader in West End. The previous two days we’d have pouring rain then gale force winds. Everything settled down so the garden terrace was still and the night was clear. There was standing room only as Trent’s friends and family came to support him. Marianne and I have known Trent for fifteen years since the Vision Writers group started and he’s been part of ROR for the last 9.
Books and writers aren’t made over night. You put in a long apprenticeship and then once you are published the work gets harder!
Feeling very proud and happy for Trent.
Good News
Over at the Galaxy Bookshop’s Blog Spot there is a give away of The King’s Bastard and … drum roll …
Book one of King Rolen’s Kin has slipped into number 9 on their best seller list.
I can’t quite believe it. A big thank you to all those people who have taken a punt on this new series. And a big thank you to the staff at Galaxy bookshop!
Where would we writers be without specialist bookstores?
