Big day today: this is the day that the second in the Inspector Ramirez series hits bookstores and The Beggar’s Opera is released in paperback! My friend Debbie has already found TBO at the Ottawa International Airport as she was enroute to Toronto and took this picture for me:
She snapped these shots of the two books sitting on a table in a bookstore in the Eaton’s Centre, Toronto as well as one of the new book, The Poisoned Pawn, on the shelf ! (Can’t remember, but I am guessing that’s Chapters in the Eaton’s Centre?)
Anyway, super exciting! I’m particularly chuffed at seeing TBO in the airport because so many snowbirds are heading off to Cuba for holidays now, and that’s where they are most likely to pick it up.
Very nice of Debbie to take a snap of these! If you see TBO or The Poisoned Pawn somewhere in Canada (or TBO in the US, where it will be released in March), send me a photograph and I’ll post it up! peggyblair[at]rogers.com. Thanks!











Great news Peggy!! Congrats!! Look forward to meeting you at your book launch at the Orange Art Gallery on February 20! In the meantime, keep up your interesting blogs – Especially enjoyed “What not to say…” & subsequent treatment of each statement! Warmly, Jo-Anne
Thanks, Jo-Anne — looking forward to meeting you and Christine!
Congratulations, Peggy! What a great day!
Big day indeed! Having dinner with a friend tonight to celebrate!
It’s like I was stalking your book! This is the result of a book lover traveling, I gravitate to bookshops…
Ha! Well, it was very thoughtful of you, thanks!
Congratulations Peggy. And thank you for the way you share your publishing experience. I loved The Beggars Opera and look forward to the Poisoned Pawn.
Thanks so much Mae!
