I had a blast last night at Elana Johnson's Surrender Launch Party up at The King's English Bookshop in SLC.
*me, Kathryn Purdie, Michelle Davidson Argyle*
We started with a delicious Italian dinner with Elana and other writer friends then listened to her speak about her experiences this past year since Possession first came out.
*Can you see out matching hair strips?*
Then of course I had my book signed and can't wait to read it!
To celebrate even more, I am giving away a copy of Surrender to one lucky blog reader. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post between now and June 15th. Extra points for following my blog and spreading the word via FB, twitter, or blogpost. Just let me know in your comment.
I'm going camping all next week and won't even have cell phone reception, let alone internet access. But fear not, I have a few blog posts scheduled. Tune in Monday to read about a time I didn't surrender (as part of Elana's Never Surrender Blogfest) and Tuesday and Thursday for the First Fight/First Kiss Blogfest. Though I'll be unresponsive to comments all week, I'll be back next weekend to catch up.

THanks!
I wish I could have gone! It sounds like you had lots of fun. Good luck at girls camp!
It sounds like the book launch was a blast! Wish I could have been there. I'm looking forward to going to one of the other signings this week though and picking up a copy.
Camping!?!?! Have fun!!! Terribly jealous. How organized of you to have posts done! :)
Book launches look so fun. I wish some would come to the good ol' Midwest here. haha
Italian food, books, author signing, cake...if I lived closer I would have crashed that party for sure!! LOL
Camping? For a week? You are my hero. I am NOT a happy camper. "Glamping" is much more my style...I am too high maintenance to make it in the outdoors. LOL
Hope you and the girls have fun!
Cassie-You should be! Haha.
Robin-Thanks for spreading the word. "Enjoy" is the key word. I will try.
Danielle-I loved it too. It's actually one of my comparables for my current MS.
Shauna-They are!
Jeni-We missed you! Thanks for the luck, I'm gonna need it.
Leslie-I got to chat with your sister which is always a blast too.
Kelley-I've been to signings but I think this was my first launch. It really was fun.
Jaybird-Haha. Glamping. Trust me, I'd much rather go to another book launch. Wish me luck.
Fun! That was the yummiest looking cake book I've ever seen.
I'm so glad you had fun. I wish I could have been there to support Elana. Congrats to her!
Glad you enjoyed it.
I hope your camping trip is even more fun.
Book launch parties rock. Have fun camping and watch out for The Ghost of Wasatch Mountains. I hear she's a real killer.
Spreading the word now!
I had so much fun with you at this launch, Ilima! (And thanks for trading sandwiches with me at the pre-launch party.) I feel like a famous person just being in a photo on your blog! :-) Please come back alive from your camping trip!!!
