P.S. On the day of the Dragonfruit party I turned in my final edits for Year of Fire Dragons: An American Woman's Story of Coming of Age in Hong Kong. The book will be in stores very soon. Here's the Goodreads page if you'd like to add it!
I love these photos and had a wonderful time at the launch! It was the perfect final night of our Hong Kong trip. Thank you for arranging it! I'm all ready to buy multiple copies of "Year of Fire Dragons" and send Jocelyn a scan of your postcard. She was thrilled to see it!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Susan! I'm glad you were able to be there. I've just seen the full cover of "Year of Fire Dragons" featuring your own blurb on the back :).
DeleteWonderful to see the photos - and so disappointed that I couldn't come along. We should have a Bangkok or Yangon event.................. Irrawaddy Literary Festival is not so far away either :)
