Ekahni Books

If you weren’t at the Hoffman Center last night for the launch of Judy Allen’s new book, “Looking Through Water”, you missed a real treat. Judy was her same lovely, sparkling self.  Except now she was speaking to a crowd of over 50 people who showed up to support her, buy her book and ask her questions about her process as a writer, how she got published and what inspired her to write this particular book.  Franz and I were honored to be her bookseller for this event, and we couldn’t be more proud of her if we tried.  She really knocked it out of the park and I think she had fun with it, too!

As we promised during the Q & A session, here is a link to Judy’s blog about her book.  When she gets her information up on Facebook and/or Twitter, you will be able to find that information on our website here, as well.  One quick word about her website, she has a lot of links on there for how to buy her books online from big places like Amazon and Barnes & Noble.  But, if it is convenient for you, we would love to sell Judy’s book to you from our shop.  You save on shipping, you support local business, and we will try our best to always have signed copies on hand. I’m not 100% sure about it, but since we are buying directly from her publisher, I think Judy gets a bigger slice of the pie than she would from some larger corporation.  It’s a win-win for everyone!

Thanks again to Judy for inviting us to sell her book for her at her launch! I hope all of you will get the chance to read it. It really is something special in our community, just as Judy herself is.
