I’m also a morning person. If there were more 8am book launch events (or any) I’d go to them!

But we write for ourselves, don't we? It's lovely when your book is published, lovely if people like it, but it's not the point, right? I'm trying to understand being embarrassed. Maybe I'm too old to remember. Is it about revealing things about yourself you don't even want to know? I learned a while ago that the more vulnerable you allow yourself to be, the stronger you become. I love to do readings, parties are not my strong suit.Not just book parties, parties in general. Books are only embarrassing if you give a shit what people think. What am I getting wrong?
