Thursday, February 25 at 8:00pm ET
Live streamed on YouTube (above) and Facebook Live (link to come).
EXCITING NEWS: Because NBL in part deals with a kid in crisis, at the launch I'll be raising funds in support of the Kids Help Phone, an amazing charity that provides help and support for kids 24/7.
GRAND PRIZE DRAW: For every $10 you donate to KHP (click button below for link), you'll earn one entry into the draw for the grand prize: a stack of books from our sponsors, including copies of my novels NOTHING BUT LIFE, BOY, and SAINTS, UNEXPECTED, Amanda Leduc's brand new novel, Roz Nay's Hurry Home, a couple titles from Invisible Publishing, a selection of titles curated by the City & the City Books and JH Gordon Books, as well as Kelly S. Thompson's stunning memoir, GIRLS NEED NOT APPLY (and others, too!).
RELAY COFFEE will be kicking in a prize, too: watch this space for more details!
PRIZE FOR THE WRITERS: my amazing writer friends Kelly S. Thompson and Stephanie Vandermeulen have graciously agreed to donate some of their time to work with the winners to polish a short story or essay.
