Friday night was the big night… I think that there were about 20 people there and I sold 10 books, bringing the total now to 13 sales. I also did a little speech and a reading from the book.
Big thanks to Australian Active Aim’s Business Centre for their help on the night (couldn’t have done it without you) and the girls at Red Brick Gallery and Emporium for letting me take over the space for an hour.
If you didn’t make it to the launch but would still like to buy a copy of the book, not to stress…
There are a limited number of (unsigned) books available at Red Brick Gallery in Ballarat or you can always purchase one online from either

More like 14 days and counting
16 days and counting... What else do I need to do
The countdown to launch day looms above me. All I can think is that I hope that the books get here on time. I hope that I buy enough food (keeping in mind I’m not providing meal type food but rather snackish stuff that they can eat while having alcohol). I hope I buy enough non-alcoholic drinks (bet I run out of those before I do the wine).What if I don’t sell any books? What if people don’t like my speech? Damn I hate speaking in public. Will the local paper remember to show up (I will be calling them a few days before to confirm).
I may be overworrying, but it’s what I do.
Well, the books are in Australia and have cleared customs. Now the waiting really begins. It could be any day that they arrive (except weekends). I try to remain optimistic but it’s getting harder.
Too much weighs on the success of this event. I’ve already un-volunteered myself for derby duties the day before, knowing that I’ll be a bouncing ball of stress and anxieties (all the more so if the books don’t get here in time).
All I can do is work one day at a time...
