Book Club

Marvellous book club meeting in Niagara on the Lake! Recently, I was invited to talk about my book to a fabulous group of women who have been meeting regularly for years. I was delighted to take part in the lively discussion and we even raised a glass of champagne in Miss Boyd’s honour. Salud!
