BC Book Prizes On Tour
April 07, 2008

Hello!
I’m delighted to be going on tour in the beautiful Kootenays later this month and look forward to meeting as many readers as possible.
It’s an honour to have my novel, Adam’s Peak, nominated for the Ethel Wilson Fiction Prize. If you’re not yet familiar with the book, please come over to my website and have a look around! The site has a contact page, which can be used for comments and questions.
If you live in the Kootenay region, I hope to see you at your school or library soon!
Best wishes,
Heather

Every year a selection of shortlisted authors hit the road to promote the BC Book Prizes. The authors tours the province, connecting with students, librarians and community members throughout BC.
This is the first year that authors will be blogging while on tour. You can expect to see updates from the road, photos and more as the Tour travels the province.
While you’re waiting, have a look at photos of the 2007 Lieutenant Governor’s BC Book Prizes.
