Boffo!

What a success yesterday's book launch was! Lynette's book sold so well, in fact, that Hastings told her it was best book signing they'd ever had at this store. The reception was every bit as successful as well. Here are some pictures.

The Book Signing


The Reception
Our books. A small stack now, but watch it grow!

Thanks to Bobbie Fry for gifting the delicious cake,

The caviar station

Just two of many bottles of champagne that were popped.

Henry Miller says, "Cheese!"

Afternoon lace patterns.

Salmon pate and dahl bread.

Bacon-wrapped shrimp. Didn't last!

Catered by The Vicar of Nibbly
(actually, Joel and myself).

My mother's antique tea cups.

Mini-scones, jam, and clotted cream.

"Cheers!"

Thanks to Bobbie Fry for the cake, Michael Broyles for the poster, Lauren Weaver for the photography, and to Joel Wiseman for all the help!

It was truly a banner day. Thank you Steph, for all your efforts, and for making me feel like a star, if even for only a day.

Lynette, I have a feeling you already are a star. Everyday.

Congrats to all involved, and especially Lynette! Maybe one day I can have one of those of my own....

It's taken us three years to get to this point, a lot of work and a lot of tenacity, but we did it. The book signing was really very easy to get. Nettl simply went to Hastings with a professional looking promo kit that we built, and asked. And the reception was just a party, although a bit more costly than our usual ones. The entire event was unbelievably fulfilling!

See, the hard part for me is Step One (Write Book). Once that's out of the way, though...!

Well, there is that... ;)
