Book Launch for Jayne E. Self

On Saturday, October 15th, BookLore in Orangeville hosted a great turn-out for the launch of Jayne's new book "Murder in Hum Harbour". We were delighted for Jayne, and thrilled to see such a huge number of people in attendance. Included in the masses were members of the Headwaters Writers' Guild Shirley, Nancy, Diane and her two sons, Judy, Patricia, Megan, Caitlin, Clare, Ashley, David, and former member Laura with her daughter. Jayne's husband Harvey and 2 of their sons, Allan and Jamie, were also in attendance.

Look at the size of the crowd:




And that doesn't include everybody!

Jayne read from the first chapter of her novel and answered some questions from her guests. She also had a draw for a pair of Sea Glass earrings.



And of course we can't forget a photo of Jayne with the Headwaters Writers' Guild members, at least those who were still there when this picture was taken.


And while I was there, I spotted a couple of interesting books on the shelves. Check out these awesome reads:


A Walk in Fields of Gold - The Headwaters Writers' Guild Anthology,


The Hurleyville Taxi by HWG member Clare McCarthy.

At the HWG meeting the next day Jayne reported that her books sold out! What awesome support from our fellow writers and Orangevillians. And thanks to BookLore for your continued support of local writers (and for the cake and hot apple cider!).

Congratulations, Jayne. I'm so proud of you. It's nice to see other HWG members books on display on the BookLore shelves. I'm pleased for you all. I wish I was able to attend.
