I'm currently getting ready for my first big promotional appearance for Eneit Press, and In Bad Dreams ~ Volume 1, since Conflux. On Monday evening Amanda Pillar, author of The Letter, and I have been asked to be a part of the Albury Dymocks store, book club members event.

This seems to be a bit more swanky than a regular book signing event, as the store has organised musicians from the local Conservatorium to play softly in the background, and all those attending are by invitation only. So Amanda and I can do our best to convince some very serious book people that the thing they most want for Christmas is a case of Bad Dreams!

Writing is well known to be a lonely occupation, but editing and publishing can also leave you somewhat alone once the book has gone out into the wide world. So it was lovely to have someone take the time to let us know how much they enjoyed the In Bad Dreams anthology via several degrees of seperation.

How did the degrees of seperation come into it? Well the person had attended a car club meet; caught up with the baker from our small town, and told him all about it, and how much she enjoyed it; the baker then happened to see my husband at his workplace, and passed the compliment on to him; and he rang me.

So, to the lady at the car club meet, thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it, and you just made my day.
