Sue Bursztynski Book Signing


So on Sunday Sue Bursztynski author of the newly released Wolfborn was at Dymocks in Southland, which is a shopping centre in Melbourne, signing copies of her new book Wolfborn and I decided to trundle along and brave the crazy Christmas shopping crowd to firstly actually meet Sue whose blog I’ve been following for a while now and to get my copy of Wolfborn signed because as many of you already know I love to get my books signed.

When I finally made it to the bookstore I found Sue immediately as she had prime position out the front of the store and she had already sold a couple of copies of her book. It was great to finally meet Sue who was lovely, I especially loved the necklace Sue chose to wear it was this really cool necklace with a silver wolfs head on it (the book is about werewolves). So after introducing myself to Sue I got my copy of Wolfborn signed, Sue even drew little paw prints on the book, so cute! I also was given some signed bookmarks so I’ll be giving them away on the blog sometime soon, so keep your eyes pealed.

For those of you who haven’t heard of Wolfborn before below is the blurb:

Break the curse or howl forever.

Etienne, son of a lord in the kingdom of Armorique, goes to train as a knight with Geraint of Lucanne. Geraint is brave and kind, a good teacher and master - but he has a secret that he has kept from his family. He is bisclavret, a born werewolf. When Geraint is betrayed, Etienne must ally with the local wise-woman and her daughter, themselves bisclavret, to save his lord. But time is running out. If Geraint's enemies have their way, Geraint will soon be trapped in his wolf form.

And Etienne has his own secret. The decisions he makes will change his life forever . . .

Inspired by a medieval romance, this engaging novel forces us to question everything we thought we knew about werewolves.

I finished Wolfborn last week (I am in the process of writing my review for it) and thoroughly enjoyed getting lost in the medieval world Sue created were werewolves were not simply mythical creatures but real.

Sue seems super nice. Looks like if was worth facing the Christmas crowds. I haven't been to a book signing before but I would love too.
Thanks for stopping by my blog, I really love Amanda Seyfried too so I'm pretty excited about the movie, I mostly feature books but I figured it was okay since it's based on a book technically haha.

I love author signings although I've only been to one real one, living in the middle of nowhere these days makes it difficult. I have bought a few autographed books and it just makes them extra-special.

Anyway lovely blog and I'm your latest follower :)
Thanks, Romy! It was so good to meet you - and it was a Cyndi Smith brooch, by the way; I ordered it from her at Aussiecon, as a birthday gift to myself.
Dymock's was great - Alice, who arranged it for me, was really lovely and helpful. I signed a pile for the shop after the official signing was over. I hope they sell now!
