This weekend is Art in the Park, sponsored by the Magic Valley Arts Council. This year there will be a food truck from “Garden to Go”, a wine tasting, and music on Friday night, and on Saturday lots of kids activities, an ice cream social, a dunk tank, and other activities, as well as more food vendors. In the midst of all that will be the artisans, such as myself, selling our wares. I will have my first four Toni Day mysteries for sale. I’m sorry to say that the fifth, The Body on the Lido Deck, is still not available; but I’m pretty sure I’ll have it for Thousand Springs.

That’s in September. My book is in proofreading right now. After that, I have to decide which changes to accept or not accept, then they send the corrected proof for me to review, make final changes, then it’s off to the printer.

Once I receive my physical printer copy, I can order books to sell. Once I receive them, I can schedule the launch party.

It would be nice to have that prior to Thousand Springs. Otherwise, Thousand Springs will be the launch party.

Bummer. Major bummage.
