Book winners!

Thanks to everyone who entered the giveaway for Moonlight Sketches. This is the second time I've done this, and I am sincerely touched by the vast number of people who entered, and particularly the large number of people across the country and in other other countries besides Canada who already have bought the book but just wanted one signed. That's really the main reason I've started doing the occasional drawing for a signed copy--because so many of you aren't able to attend signings, or I'm not able to get where you are in order to sign a book for you. As a book collector myself--especially of signed books--I understand why you want the author's signature and maybe a personal note on your book, particularly if I happen to know you a little bit. Believe me, it always means a lot for me to be able to do it.

For others, there's the problem of living in a place where the book isn't even available except through the internet.

Regardless of your reasons for entering, a sincere thank you for your interest and continued support. I promise you there will be another draw for another free copy of Moonlight Sketches in a few weeks. Of course, both books and postage are expensive, and so I wouldn't be able to afford to do this if not for the help of the generous people at Creative Publishers. Thanks to you, Creative (Donna Francis, especially, in this case). I firmly believe I am with one of the very best publishing houses in Canada.

So, the winners are:

First draw:  Frankie Nash Ouellette

Second draw: Deborah Kammerman

Both winners are friends of mine on Facebook, so if you can send me your mailing address, I'll get your book in the mail right away.

Congrats to you both!

Till next time,
Gerard
