Thank you so much! It's lovely to know you'll be there. Nothing like friendly faces in a roomful of people to make any artist doing a presentation feel at home.

Thanks for sharing! Spreading the word about new books is one of the best things you can do for an author. Buying the book is great, and talking about it is great, and social media shares can add many extra sales!

Just FYI you don't have to buy the ticket/book combo, you can just come for the talk, but I understand it'll save you money to get both together. Unless you're planning to wait until it's remaindered, of course, in which case it might be tactful to keep that to yourself on launch day.
