The leaf bookshop

 Today 5 copies of my books went into an independent bookstore. It’s the leaf bookshop in ashburton. This is my local because I frequent this community at least once a week. I use to live in the area and our community theatre was down from the strip of shops. Also I was told that I may not be able to get my book into book stores and libraries because I self published. The leaf bookshop owner decided she liked my Benny story. So happy and buzzy 🐝 This has given me the confidence to tackle Ashburton library.

So happy.
