Coming in April: A Book Fair for the Moncton Area

with 2 comments

April will be a welcome month for book lovers!

Come to the First Annual Greater Moncton/Riverview/Dieppe Independent Book Fair.

30 tables, 38 authors! Lots and lots of books!

~

 

~

I will be there with all my books:

Kaye Eliot Mysteries,

Meniscus Science Fiction,

award-winning poetry

and, for the first time,

a children’s book!

~

Wink in the Rain is about an elf who lives at the edge of a garden.

Wink loves the garden but he does not like the rain.

Visit with Wink and his friends as he finds a way to keep his wings dry.

~

~

I often include black and white drawings in my books

but the drawings for Wink in the Rain needed lots of colour.

I used GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) to draw Wink, the plants in the garden,

the raindrops and Wink’s friend, the red-backed salamander.

I will be showing Wink in the Rain for the first time at the Greater Moncton Independent Book Fair.

Write the date in your calendar now: April 22nd. 10am – 4pm. Riverview Lions Community Center.

Wink in the Rain!

All my best,

Jane

I will also have copies of all the Meniscus books at the Greater Moncton Riverview Dieppe Independent Book Fair at the Riverview Lions Club……. on Saturday April 22, 2023! I would love to see you there.
