EVERNEATH Launch Party: An Initial Recap

Hey y'all. I'm finally starting to unwind from the big launch party. I can't believe how many people showed up, and packed the art gallery next door to my local indie bookstore, the awesome King's English. 

I thought I'd just show you some wonderful pictures, taken by my friend Michelle Sallay. (Also, she is giving away a signed copy of Everneath on her blog).

First off, here are pics of the crowd from several angles. I was so overwhelmed by the support from the community, friends and family! The staffers counted over 200 in attendance. 











I did my first ever power point presentation. We were only into the second slide when I came across my first typo. 

It read:

THIS IS MY FIRST POWER POINT PRESENTATION.I all grown up now.
Yep. I all grown up now. 

I signed books for over two hours straight. The King's English sold out of books early in the evening. Thank you so much to everyone who braved the crowds and stood in line!

My awesome family (who considers it their divine mission in life to feed the masses) made the best treats which helped make the wait more pleasant.

I almost hated that they had to cut into the pretty!

Here are some more pics of the event, again taken by Michelle Sallay:



This is my critique group, THE SIX minus me. They are wearing DEAD ELVISES t-shirts. From l-r: Sara Bolton, Valynne Nagamatsu, Kim Reid, Bree Despain and Emily Wing Smith. 








My sweet parents, holding my book. Doesn't my dad look great?!




Me signing.
Thank you to everyone for all of your support. People ask me how I'm handling everything, and I tell them I'm handling everything fine, until I think about all the people I have to thank. Then I become overwhelmed.



If you were at the party, what did you think?



And if you weren't, did you know you can order signed copies of EVERNEATH from The King's English?



Also, I will announce the winner of the Pre-order contest tomorrow. :)

Sara Read your book on Tuesday and LOVED it! Will be greatly anticipating the next one, which you are probably making me wait a year for. Congratulations on your launch party success.
