I thought you would be interested in hearing about recent venues where I read from and talked about my novel, Would I Lie To You? As well as meeting new people, it was a real bonus to see so many family and friends there.
Paragraph Books in Montreal on April 15, 2015 Yellow Door Reading Series, also in Montreal, on April 16, 2015.
McNally Robinson Books in: Winnipeg on June 2, 2015 and in Saskatoon on June 4th, 2015. The photo was taken in Winnipeg.
These are all wonderful bookstores and series that support and promote
Canadian authors. I was very pleased to have an opportunity to read at
all of them.And to meet and share the podium with interesting authors. Loren Edizel in Montreal, Pam Galloway in Winnipeg and JoanSpencer
Olson in Saskatoon. Each author came from somewhere else, including
Toronto, Regina and Vancouver. Great fun to learn what writers across
the country are doing. Something I also did at the Writers' Union of Canada AGM that took place in Winnipeg just prior to the western readings.
What's coming next? I like surprises
so if you have ideas for an event, e.g. your book club or discussion
group, please get in touch. In the meantime, I will read at Lit Live in
Hamilton on October 4th and in Chatham on a date yet to be determined.
Oh yes, there is a private celebration of friends in July in Toronto.I have also just been asked to speak at a book club in Toronto in November. And then there are the dreams ... the Provence garden and a cruise are still possibilities on the horizon.
At the moment, it will soon be summer
holiday time! I am going to the Jazz Festival in Montreal with friends
for a few days and then on to visit another friend on the St. Lawrence
in rural Quebec.
Have a wonderful summer!
