Mademoiselle Victorine--Can We Talk?

It has been a busy and fun September. I've been doing book signings and giving lectures accompanied by slides of paintings and photographs from the 1860's and 1870's. Thank you to the National Arts Club in New York City, especially to the president of Le Cocktail Francais, Connie Brock. She organized a terrific evening in the club's Gallery on Sept. 18th, set up the perfect lectern/ screen/mike and wrote a smashing invitation that brought in an SRO crowd of over 90 lovely people. She ordered 100 books and sold out that evening. She told me she wished she'd ordered more!
The Alliance Francaise slide lecture/book signing with Diane's Books happens Tuesday, Oct. 2nd followed by a champagne party and book signing at Burgundy Books in East Haddam, Connecticut at 1PM on Sat. Oct 6th. Linda Williams is the brilliant dynamo at Burgundy Books who organized this. Then, the Women's Fall Luncheon for a private group in Harrison, New York where I'll sign books and talk about my favorite subjects---Mademoiselle Victorine and Paris.
Thank you to all the fabulous, lovely readers out there. You are magnifique!
