What a fabulous day this was. On February 28th, I launched the Lost Souls at Once Upon a Huckleberry Bush, a lovely children’s bookstore in Vancouver. For me, this was ridiculously exciting, not only because I was launching my first novel, but because it was the first time I had gathered so many friends and family in one room. People came from all over – Edmonton, Calgary, Victoria, Seattle – to celebrate with me. (And more than one remarked that it felt more like a wedding than a book launch.)
So, many thanks to everyone who came, and to Once Upon a Huckleberry Bush for putting on the event.
And now, some photos of the day…
