For our Speed Dating event, Blind Date books use their first line(s) as their “pick-up” lines, so Michelle will be here to tell us all about first lines: how she came up with her first line and their importance. She’ll also discuss her novel, Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic. There will be games and lots of laughter. Dress to impress.
This is an adult event. A $12.60 fee- pre-registration is required for this event to monitor numbers. You can register at the store, by phone with a credit card at 902-435-1207, or by e-transfer to dbex1187@gmail.com.
