My Book Launch Party

March 12, 2009

 After twenty-five years of writing, I had my first book launch party. It was an amazing evening. On March 7th, two wonderful sponsors, Brenda Jackson with Morgan Stanley, and Pat Durham, an image coach in Houston, sponsored a party to celebrate the release of my 24th book, Love Finds You in Humble Texas.

We had food and chocolate truffles and live music provided by my daughter who happens to be a talented guitarist.

There was a beautiful crowd of people, who all appeared to have a marvelous time.  Here are my dear friends, Randy and Andrea Ricks. In fact, it was Randy who took some of these photos!

And guests brought me gifts! Jim Reitz gave me this photograph he’d taken of me that he’d hand painted. What a surprise! Thank you, Jim.

I wish everyone could have shared the launch party with me. It was great to see old friends, and it was wonderful to make new ones. And I would especially like to thank Kathy Willis and her husband for attending, since they drove more than six hours to get to the party. Thanks so much! 

Even though it’s been five days since the party, I am still feeling kind of dreamy in my head. Thanks to everyone for making the launch party for Love Finds You in Humble Texas an evening I will never forget!

Blessings,
