Looks like you had a grand time! I especially love the “lone writer” shot. Beautiful …
It was 🙂 Me too…One of my fave shots…Mike from our Camp Creek Writers Group and his wife came out…
Congratulations Jackie!!! I am so excited for you … this is just the beginning.
Sidebar: will someone mail books to those who were unable to attend, but purchased a ticket?
Hey Girl,
Thank you! I certainly hope so:) I got your e-mail, but I’m just now getting back to my regular routine after the party and official launch. And yes, you are on my list of people to mail a copy of the book too 🙂 I apologize for not replying sooner…
No rush at all! I just wanted to ask. Take your time ~ I’ll be here whenever you get around to it.
On another note, getting back up and around so I look forward to supporting you at future events. Sent mass email with book info to sorors. Please let me know if there is anything – ANYTHING – I can do to help and support.
I am so happy for you!!!!!
I’m so glad you’re getting out and about:) If you feel like venturing to the Southside tomorrow, I will be at Lifeway Christian Bookstore, 1904 Mt. Zion Road in Morrow, from 2-4 pm signing books:)
I’m sorry Jackie – I am just coming back to reading this. Funny thing is that right after or before spin I read your post and was wondering why I didn’t know ~ LOL!!! Please keep me posted and if you have time, email me. I may not come back to the site until the next post. Congrats again!!!
I will e-mail you, and I will be sending that package soon…cannot believe how every minute my day is scheduled now…not complaining, but growing pains lol…
Jackie, I had a blast! Thanks for allowing me to emcee your VERY BOOK LAUNCH PARTY! It definitely WON’T be your last. Sooo proud OF you, and happy FOR you!
Thank YOU so much Chel:) You were a fab emcee for the evening!!!
