The launch party for my new book, Light in the Dark Forest, was a great success. On a wintry Sunday afternoon, family and friends, old and new, gathered at Books On The Bosque to celebrate with me. Good friend and children's author, Barbara Alt https://www.bar-blyn.net,  led the festivities with lively questions and discussion about the new novel. With the story set in Oklahoma, I added a state map and flag to the décor. I pinpointed places important to the story and my upbringing as an Okie. I also made a big batch of my famous Oklahoma Cow Patty cookies. Which everyone enjoyed. And, hey, I sold books!
