Share-a-not launch into the world

That's right baybee, the Share-a-not is coming to a world near you!!! My brand new book, The Share-a-not (if you didn't guess that already), is out ... well, sort of anyway. I have copies, and you know what? I may have already written about this last week. I will check once I am done. So you may be reading all this for a second time, but too bad so sad my friend, I am excited! I am having a book launch next weekend for the book, in the luverly Ivanhoe Library, with great people around me, and from then on it is just a matter of time before The Share-a-not hits the bookstores. At this stage we are looking at it being sometime in December or early january. What? you say? After Christmas? Well surely that isn't a bonus. Correct, I would answer, it would certainly have been my preference to have the book in bookstores before Christmas, that being when lots of people buy books and all, but it's not meant to be and that is that. So it falls on me to sell as many as I can and I plan on doing exactly that! Markets, schools, fairs, fetes, festivals, I will be at them all and I will be pushing my book so hard that it will be like concrete, or diamonds, or something even harder than a diamond, whatever that may be.

So that is my main news for this week. I was out at Ruthven Primary for my last week, whic hwas a little sad, as I have really enjoyed my time there and will miss the kids greatly. They were a great group and made me feel really welcome and I just had a ball. So thankyou Ruthven Primary School, I hope you all enjoyed my time there as much as I did.

That's it from me. I am off to Bendigo on Sunday to do workshops at Eaglehawk North Primary with my old mate Anthony. It will be great to catch up with him after not seeing him for a few years, and it will be great to meet some new kids and have some fun drawing and writing and reading and chatting with them.

Have a great week everyone, and keep living the dream.

Stay gold.

Slackness, school visits and launches

Well helllloooooooo! I know, I was slack and didn't write anything last week. Well, actually, I tried, but couldn't log in. Anyway, that was slack. I was as slack as a piece of string that is being held slackly so that it is slack and is hanging loose, and then you pull it tight but someone comes along with scissors and cuts it so now you have two slack pieces of string so are doubly slack and that is what I was. But not what I am, because here I am, writing people, writing for you!
So I guess I had better say something worthwhile.
I have been to a couple of schools! Goonawarra last week, and saw the Prep-grade 2 kids, who were all awesome, and one even gave me a dog tag to wear! That was so cool, and such a nice gesture, I was really pleased and thought it was so nice that he did that. But we had great fun, the kids even threatened not to let me go home!
Then I was back out to Ruthven this week, where we did writing workshops, told stories, and made cat noises ... rrrowwwww. Sorry. I think you had to be there for that one, but it was pretty funny.
And my new book is here. I have stock of the Share-a-not, so buy buy buy! Just kidding, although it is available from my website, www.adam-wallace-books.com and I will sign every copy you buy. Worth a fortune people, they will be worth a fortune in years to come! I am having a launch for the book in a few weeks, so that will also be great fun, to have a bit of a get together with my favourite people and show them the fruits of my labour ... mmm, fruit. I could have an apple about now. In fact, I think i am going to go and get something to eat.
Have a great week, and keep living the dream.
Stay gold.
