Expozine was a huge success! As one of the organizers since its inception in 2002, Louis Rastelli was amazed at how the event’s growth just doesn’t stop from one year to the next. It’s hard to imagine how far it can go, what with endless demands for more space, and the 280 participating small presses, artists and self-publishers coming from more and more different places in Canada, the US, and even from Europe and Australia!
Many people bought A Fine Ending at Expozine; some of them had already read it and were buying copies to give as Christmas presents. All in all, it was a hell of a book fair!
Just in time to (hopefully) kick-start holiday sales of the book, the full review and article about A Fine Ending in the fall/winter Montreal Review of Books is now online here .
Also just in time for the holidays is an updated listing for the novel at www.amazon.ca . We’ve had a lot of trouble getting them to list the details right, as well as the ridiculous estimated shipping time that they indicate (rest assured, it would take a week or two, not months, to get the book from www.amazon.ca !!) If anyone has already read the book and feels like writing a review on its page at www.amazon.ca, it would be GREATLY appreciated!!
Stay tuned to this website in the coming weeks as we add a podcast, photos, more excerpts from the book and a new blog post!
