Happy Book Day

This morning the kids and I went out to visit Joviva Chihuahuas, to meet her latest litter ... just for fun - Dotter was especially taken with this little sweetie pie ... so tiny!


When we got back, look what was waiting for me! A Saturday delivery, no less (very unusual in Australia).




There's really nothing like it, holding your own book in your hands for the first time. Super exciting. Big thanks for Mark Koltko-Rivera for being such an awesome coauthor too! I think that between the two of us we've created something better than either of us could have done alone (well, it's certainly the case for me, at least!).

If you'd like to be a reviewer, and get a free copy, head on over to my Facebook Page for instructions :)

PS I have turned on verification on posting as I've been getting comment spam, hopefully this will fix the problem :p

I can't imagine the joy of holding a book with my name on it. You must be over the moon once again. I can't wait to get my hands on a copy.

Hoping all is going well at the hospital. LOVE your book! I have tried to post my review, but have never purchased from Amazon so they won't let me. May have to buy the other of your recent releases!!
