It turned out to be an utterly terrific evening. The booksigning went well–I think I sold 20ish copies of URBAN SHAMAN and 10 or 12 WINTER MOONS (I’m going to call Monday and talk to the events person and see if I can find out more exactly), and saw many people, including Lance, my old boss from Internet Alaska, and his wife Tammis and their son Isaac, and three of the RWA ladies, which was 2 more than I expected, since I forgot to mention about the book signing on list until about 4pm, and Jai and Ri-Sean and Calex all came, and Melissa and Pat and Jack and Coby, and at least six people I didn’t know at all bought copies of the book, and yeah. It was good. :)
My hair ended up red. All over:
It’s rather brighter than I expected it to be. I’m still adjusting to it. When Coby came into B&N, he said he wondered who that woman sitting where Kit was supposed to be was, and then realized it was in fact me, but my hair was different from the last time he’d seen me! And that’d only been last night! So I signed his book as being from that strange woman who was where Kit was supposed to be. :)
There are a couple of pictures of Famous Author C.E. Murphy and friends up at cemurphy.net. :)
After the book signing Calex and Kim and Catie and Ted and Shaun and Coby and Pat and Melissa and Jack all went out to dinner at Panda Restaurant, which was a great deal of fun, although there was a lot of freezing to death as we went in and out of the restaurant, ’cause it’s cold and windy out. *shiver* But winter is almost over! Three more days!
Ok, off to bed because we have to get up and go to Fairbanks in the morning…
Glad you had a good time.
The hair looks fabulous!
Cool hair, Catie!
Keep in mind, though, that if you don’t like how bright it ended up, it’ll have faded some in a few weeks. There’s something about the chemical makeup of red hair dye that won’t hold the same shade. I’ve been dying my hair red for years and I have to reapply the color every time I do it, otherwise I’d end up with two different shades!
Wow. Red hair suits you. It brings out your eyes and goes well with your complexion.
Oh! I purchased Winter Moon and The Cardinal Rule from eharlequin yesterday. I waited till “Free Book Friday” and bought some Georgette Heyer books to round out the order so I could get free shipping. I love Georgette Heyer so I was glad that the site has SIX of her books that I don’t have. :D Definitely check her out if you haven’t already, her writing is exquisite too.
The hair looks great! And good luck with all of the traveling.
Your hair looks spectacular, and now I want to make mine red or pink more than ever, even though I love the teal and got about a million compliments on it at the Tank yesterday.
I have not managed to call you because of calculus and the weekend, but I hope your travels are good!
The pics are cute. Looks like you had loads of fun.
Irish camoflouge!
Er.
