It rained on my signing but... 6/22/2008 5:04:18 AM
... I'm still smiling! Yesterday in Coventry (in the English West Midlands) was very, very wet. Undeterred, we went ahead with our barbecue in the garden for my book signing of "Charity's Child".
At the signing in Borders, things were quiet for the first half-hour, but after that, friends and family began to turn up and as soon as there were a few people around my table, others stopped to look. I lost track of how many we sold, but it was quite a few and the Borders staff had to bring out new supplies.
We were supposed to be stopping at 2.30pm but it got to 3pm without my realising, and just as I started to pack up there was a last-minute flurry. I got home at 3.30pm to find that my partner, Paul, had done a magnificent job cooking food under the gazebo in the rain, and there was an abundance of delicious things to eat and drink. Hannah, Paul's daughter and Emily, my daughter (who had driven all the way down from Scotland to attend) ably assisted, and we had a wonderful time with family and friends.
I'm just stealing a few minutes from the clearing-up, hehe. Better get back - almost done now. Lots of lessons learned, lots of fun - but now I just need to sleep!
