Hello Australia and New Zealand !

So, no quilty things today, but a post about another creative project of mine ...
-
I am BEYOND thrilled that my novel The Town That Drowned is now released in Australia and New Zealand by publisher Allen and Unwin.  I LOVE the cover on this edition!
-
Now if I may ask a wee favour ... obviously I am very far away and although I dream of travelling to Australia and New Zealand some day, I'm not there yet.  But I would love to see a photo of my book sitting in a real live bookstore there.  If by any chance anyone sees it and could click a pic with their phone and email it to me I would be so so appreciative !!! I am at hawkshawhills@yahoo.com
-
Thanks so much!  And we will return to our regularly scheduled quilty stuff next time.

Well you KNOW this is still my favorite book! So my husband loves the Kindle app on his iPad and likes books based on reality. "Honey, have I got a book for YOU!!" I was SO happy to find it was available via Kindle!
