Top 100 Book Launch
Yesterday I attended a "Top 100 Books" Launch sponsored by our local Angus & Robertson which was held at one of the branches of my local library. It was quite an event, which included the local mayor Nick Lalich and world-renowned author, Pamela Freeman (pic below).
I was really quite embarrassed as the librarians loudly introduced me to all and I was the youngest person there. There were a lot of women aged around my Grandmother's age so I really felt out of place but nonetheless I love reading and books enough to endure and the attendees were wonderful! They were all so friendly and tried to help me feel more at home. I didn't regret attending at all.
I also purchased two books by Pamela Freeman from the Castings Trilogy. This is her first foray into writing for adults, she is normally a young adult and children's book author. Deep Water is the second book in the trilogy and was recently released, I was lucky enough to get both autographed by Pamela. She was amazing and prior to meeting her I had emailed her and she personally replied, within the same day! I was ecstatic!
Anyway, I had a great day and was thrilled to have attended such a lovely event. Hope that I could attend similar future events, now I could only hope that I could get all my books signed by the respective authors LoL...dreaming right?
