I’m mostly off the road this week and it is a welcome relief, though I absolutely love meeting my readers!
What happened this week:
On Monday, I presented to 75 kids from Connaught Street School at the Fredericton Public Library.
So much fun!
On Tuesday, I was the featured interview on my favourite podcast, The BooksBetween.
Take a listen here, but do not go all the way to the end if you don’t want a spoiler about the ending! And how great an interviewer is Corrina Allen?
On Wednesday, my friend Patricia Bailey gave The Frame-Up a glowing review over at her website! Thanks Patricia!
I also learned this week that the Atlantic Independent Booksellers Association is awarding me the 2018 Emerging Author Award for IT’S A MYSTERY, PIG FACE!, one of two awards being presented at the association’s summer book fair in Halifax. So thrilled!!!! Huge thanks to my agent, Lauren Galit, and Pig-Face’s wonderful editor, Alison Weiss!
If you’re in Fredericton this week, I’m signing copies of The Frame-Up at Westminster Books from 12 to 2 on Saturday! See you there!
Finally, now that I’m off the road for a couple of weeks, I am turning my attention to writing! I’ve already turned in my next book to Greenwillow and am expecting more notes on that book any day, but am already plotting book #4. I can’t wait to start writing again!
See you next week! And happy Eid to all who celebrate!!
And don’t you think it’s time I gave away a copy of The Frame-Up here, too? I agree. Stay tuned for next week!
Hi Wendy, I’m Patricia, one of the readers of your old blog. I just wanted to pop by and say how exciting it is to see how your writing career is developing. You certainly made the right decision when you left your job to devote yourself to this new career! All the best, P.x
Thank you Patricia!!! That means so much to me!!!!!
