I am finally surfacing after my book launch on Tuesday evening. Ten Days in Summer got off to a roaring start. Many thanks to all of you who showed up or sent good wishes. I’m touched by your interest and support. Thank you, as well, to my long-time writer-friend, Shaun Hunter, for her great introduction and to Owl’s Nest Bookstore for hosting this wow event!

And one more thank-you to my writer-photographer-friend, Ruth Daly, for her photographs that make me look good.

“Would you mind if I take pictures of your launch and write a photo-blog?” Ruth asked.

“Uhhh,” I said. “That would be terrific.”

I’ll include more of Ruth’s photos in my next posts.
