Here we are at Trent’s book launch. That’s Marianne de Pierres on the left, Trent with his books, then I’m behind him in the pink beret (was having a bad hair day, the curls would not behave) and Kylie Chan.
It was a great evening over at Avid Reader in West End. The previous two days we’d have pouring rain then gale force winds. Everything settled down so the garden terrace was still and the night was clear. There was standing room only as Trent’s friends and family came to support him. Marianne and I have known Trent for fifteen years since the Vision Writers group started and he’s been part of ROR for the last 9.
Books and writers aren’t made over night. You put in a long apprenticeship and then once you are published the work gets harder!
Feeling very proud and happy for Trent.
Thank you so much, Rowena. I was so proud to launch the book with so many good friends around. It was a blast! And, after the two previous days, I was surprised how many people braved the night.
