Down in the garden yesterday, I was delighted to see numerous wild honeybees working the white clover.
A hopeful sign for this small portion of the planet,
And now my question: I'm working with Malaprop's, Asheville's iconic bookseller, to plan a virtual October launch for AND THE CROWS TOOK THEIR EYES. The event will be streamed live at 6 pm EST -- either on Friday the 16th or on Tuesday the 20th. So, what I want to know is . . .
If this is something you might be interested in watching, which day (Friday or Tuesday) is better for you?
I already asked this on Facebook yesterday but if you didn't answer there, you can answer in the comments. Just trying to get a feel for what would work best.
I've had six wonderful, well-attended (in person) book launches at Malaprop's and had hoped to repeat but, alas, looking ahead, I don't see that happening in mid-October.
On the bright side is that this event would be accessible to my non-local friends -- and that's like the silver lining.
Anyway, I'll take note of the responses and Malaprop's and I will choose a date soon. I've also agreed to sign books for Malaprop's in advance, including personalized inscriptions for those who pre-order and request such.
Okay, I'm beginning to feel a tad excited despite the virus. It's been such a long journey. . .

Either one works for me. Sorry it won't be in person! Love the bees on clover!
Do you know if Malaprop's would have the video of the livestream available afterwards? Would you be able to link it or post it on your website? Either, or both, of those options would allow those who couldn't be "present" to be able to still watch the event.
Either is fine with me. BTW....while the library has been closed, I have been rereading favorites at home........and your Elizabeth Goodweather series has been a wonderful respite from real (!) life. Your new one has been ordered ..........good for you, Vicki!
Looking at past Mprops events, I don't thin they're recorded. They are live streamed on Zoom and require advance registration (free) in order to receive and email invitation to join the event.
(Why can't I edit myself?
I like the idea of a Tuesday, but I would probably try to be on Zoom on either day.
