Black Bird [Virtual] Launch Party

COVID has forced authors everywhere to rethink the way they market and launch books. Black Bird is no exception. I had visions of another lovely night like we had with the launch of The Church in the Wildwood...a dimly lit café, a live band, a buzzing crowd... but alas, Black Bird had to be launched from a virtual platform while I sat with my family in the living room, pretending we were surrounded by a mob of supporters.

It was strange to watch myself projected on the television, but it was thrilling to watch the view numbers of the stream climb up to nearly 300 within the first twenty-four hours.

 

Now I'm gearing up for a COVID-style masked book signing on November 13 and 14 which should prove to be another new and interesting experience. Wish me luck.
