So...needless to say, do not miss this one! And...if you have other friends who are interested, please feel free to invite them to join us, by no means is this a closed club!
The only thing different will be that we'll meet a little earlier since Ms. Bostwick will be calling us from the east coast. The call will be at 6pm, so I'll open my house to come over at 5ish. Perhaps a pot luck kinda dinner before the call? What do you all think?
Ms. Bostwick also gave me a little hint on the book, its basically out of print now, so if you have yet to get your copy she offered me this site from her local book store they should have new and signed copies available!
So..really now...order...get to reading...and see you soon!
* I thought I'd post the email from her so you all could see for yourselves:
Hi Lyn,
Forgive me for taking so long to get back to you. I've been crashing a deadline and am way behind on just about everything.
Yes, I'd love to talk to your group. And I think the 8th of June could work. If if could be a little earlier, that would help - by 7 your time I'd be a mess. Any chance we could do it at 6?
Also, I am absolutely TERRIBLE about remembering things, so I highly recommend that, after we agree on a date and time, you send me a reminder email a couple of days before. Maybe on Sunday.
I haven't discussed RIVER'S EDGE in a while, so this will be fun for me. I'm sure we can work something out.
Blessings,
Marie Bostwick
Oh, also, I checked out your blog and saw the trouble you're having getting hold of the book. I wasn't surprised, its pretty much out of print now. However, if you contact my local bookstore, www.hickorystickbookshop.com, I think they still have new copies. They would be full price however but chances are they'd have signed copies available. Just thought I'd let you know.

Yay! Can't wait!

Lyn, That is so exciting. I can't wait to "meet" her and talk about the book. If you have access to podcasts via itunes, do a search for Annie Smith-Quiters Stash. Marie Botswick was interviewed on the April 17th show. It is about her newest book, but it might give us ideas of things to talk about.
ReplyDeleteJust to let everyone know, I have a copy of the book, I could read it early and pass it on to anyone who is having trouble finding it. Let me know if you want to borrow it.

Oh my gosh Lyn! I'm so excited and can't believe you have arranged this. I'm now even more eager to read my book when it comes in. Thanks so much, you're the best!
