Hello friends,
I'd love for you to join me for the launch of my second novel, Catching the Light.
The story of a mother and daughter whose lives are forever changed when they move to a rural New Zealand artists' colony, Catching the Light is a meditation on love, grief, and the mortifying ordeal of being perceived.
It's been a long road to write this novel, but I'm very proud of it and would be so happy to have you celebrate it with me. I'll be in conversation with the wonderful Fiona Roberston, author of the short story collection 'If You're Happy'.
The event is ticketed, and you can also get a discounted copy of the book if you buy the book + ticket bundle. If you'd like to attend but can't swing the cost, please let me know and we can work something out.

The earlier start time is intended to be friendly to toddler parents (including myself), but totally understand if you have to leave early/go in and out with your kid/skip it entirely.
Thank you so much!
