No TV? No Fair! – A Number One Bestseller!

, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Following a terrific launch event at McNally Robinson Booksellers (Winnipeg), my new book “No TV? No Fair!” is their number one bestselling book for young people this week! What a an awesome start for this story!

The news was released on Saturday, May 22, 2010 in the Winnipeg Free Press:

I want to thank everyone who picked up a copy this week (and told your friends about it, too)! I really hope you enjoy the story and the characters as much as I do (some of my favorite personalities are in this one, for sure!).

Being on McNally’s bestseller list  is a great honour for an author. Icing on an already delicious cake if I may borrow that metaphor for a moment…I certainly hope it means that even more people will come across “No TV? No Fair!” and spend some time with Chloe, Mark and Mr. Z!

Thanks to all my readers and friends – you’re the best, and you’ve made my week!

Lights! Curtains! Cows! – Book Launch Mania!

, ,

Someone, please  peel me off the ceiling! I had so much fun at my book launch – my very first book launch!- for Lights! Curtains! Cows!. The event was on Sunday, January 10, 2010 at 2pm at the wonderful McNally Robinson bookstore in Winnipeg (Grant Location). The bookstore did a fabulous job setting up displays, creating AWESOME posters, and hosting a relaxed, welcoming and fun event for me and my guests. A huge thanks to the phenomenal staff at McNally Robinson, and to my publisher Formac Lorimer  for co-sponsoring this event. I’ll remember it forever!

It was great catching up with all sorts of people from all over my life – family, friends I’ve known since I was four, new friends, teachers, parents of friends who I haven’t seen in, like,  forever!

 Best of all? I met some readers of Lights! Curtains! Cows! who came out to meet me. You really made the day special for me! I’m so glad that you liked my book, and came to say hi!

It was great chatting and signing books and shaking hands and getting hugs and reading my book and – well –  just celebrating!

I hope that you all had as good a time as I did…and will come out to help me launch my next book, No TV? No Fair! (March 2010 – getting closer!)

Stay tuned for more details!
