Kristin Butcher... has novel ideas

I made the three-hour drive to Victoria Sunday afternoon in order to attend the BC Book Fair at the Laurel Point Inn. I was one of four authors on hand to introduce an upcoming book at the Monday morning Authors' Breakfast. Not only that, but I was up first, which is a bit daunting when you're presenting at an event you've never before attended and therefore have no clue how to proceed. On the other hand, I got to speak to the audience while it was still fresh and attentive. (To be perfectly honest, the group was attentive throughout the whole program.) Let's hear it for booksellers!

It was the first time out of the gate for The Last Superhero (Napoleon Publishing), which is scheduled for release in April. I wrote this book a few years ago, so it's a relief to see it finally see daylight. Basically it's a story about bullying, fighting for what you believe in, friendship, loyalty, and getting along. It has a moral, but it doesn't overwhelm the story, and there are enough laughs to balance out the drama.

Thanks to my publisher for submitting my name for the event. Thanks also to all the booksellers who attended.
