Launch Party!

Posted on Apr 3, 2015 |


I’ve been remiss in posting photographs from the night Haunted launched. We had a standing-room only crowd (literally: I had brought extra chairs and the very charming bookstore owner Tina urged me not to put them out: clever lady) and I felt so happy to see people I knew from so many different areas of my life: other writers, mom friends, runner buddies, history buffs, and even some nice strangers. Here’s a nice selection of images taken by various friends (no selfies! I haven’t invested in the stick yet) 😉

Chalkboard outside: I love the description “a tale of an ominous manor and missing children.”
