Hey everybody! I have returned from Montréal. The book launch went really well. I went up to Montréal with two of my best friends, Fauve and her fiancé, watching Final Fantasy Dissidia for a while of the way. On Saturday, the book launch took place. Many other of my friends showed up, along with a lot of more awesome people. Four books in the Collection TRIP were being launched and everybody sold a few. After the launch, Fauve, her Fiancé, Me, Link and our friends Melissa and Sofi went to eat some delicious and really desired food. Then we got rained on as we bid Sofi farewell at her bus stop. But that's okay, because vodka warmed our hearts moments after. After a good evening of delicious drinks, foodstuff and a strange question-card game thing, we went to bed. The next morning, I had a book signing at a local book store. We raided the bookstore for books before hand (MWAHAHAHA!) and then went to eat more delicious food in the restaurants of Montréal. Unfortunatly, I ordered Chow Mein and forgot they put shrimp in there (i'm rather allergic to shrimp) but I took Benadryl just in case I ate one by accident and gave all my visible shrimp bits to Fauve. The part part about Benadryl is that it really knocks you out. So I was fast asleep when Fauve and her fiancé left. I woke up a few hours later, a bit out of it and spent the evening with Link. On Monday, we hunted for appartments. We found a few walking in the streets. We are trying to find something in between these four streets: Des Bordeaux, Mont Royal, Ontario and St-Denis. It's a pretty okay spot. Cute houses. And now, I'm back and returned (somewhat angrily) to my work on Tuesday morning to find silly messages from my landlord on my machine when I got home tonight, telling me he lined up appartment visits from 4pm to 9pm Wednesday night and I needed to be out of the appartment... I guess i'll go visit my parents for 5 hours of something...
But whining put aside...
This is the post several of you have been asking me to do!
How would you love to own you're very own super-special copy of ROSE?
You can just post a comment here letting me know that you want one. ROSE is sold 20$ Canadian. It's a 64 page book in black and white. I will sign and mail it for you. If you guys don't mind, I would ask for a 2$ extra, to help pay for all my shipping fees. So basically, the book would be 22$ Canadian. I don't think it's asking for too much! Be generous to the overworked artist! *laughs*
For payment, we can do it thru paypal (using the send money option). My paypal account is under secondlina@hotmail.com. For those of you who don't have a paypal account, you can also do it the old fashion way - sending money in an envelopp. For those, simply ask and I will provide you my address thru an LJ private message. You can also give me the address you want me to send the book too thru a private paypal message.
