Whew…what a crazy couple of days it’s been. I’m still not quite caught up on sleep yet, but I thought I’d post a little behind the scenes slide show of the Canada Reads 2011 launch in Toronto. I’m still pinching myself over the fact that The Birth House was chosen by Debbie Travis for the CBC’s 10th anniversary “battle of the books!”

Thanks so much to everyone who nominated and voted for my book. Wow, wow, and wow. I am grateful.

Congratulations to all the authors and best wishes to the panelists!
