The book launch was a great<br \/>\nsuccess &#8212; we had lots of people there and sold dozens of copies. The<br \/>\nlaunch was attended by posters from all over Toronto, all over Southern<br \/>\nOntario and even some who made a special trip in from the US! We even<br \/>\nhad lurkers from the FanForum boards drop by, and a few people<br \/>\noff-the-street who had never even heard of Roswell come in and hang out,<br \/>\nwhich was terrific! A huge thanks to all for coming!<\/p>\n<p>Special thanks to the staff at the Sci-Fi Cafe, who really outdid<br \/>\nthemselves this time! They were incredibly accomodating the entire<br \/>\nafternoon, and really helped to make the launch a success. Also helping<br \/>\nto make sure things ran smoothly were the good folks at ECW Press &#8212;<br \/>\nthank you for coming out and meeting the fans. Another special thanks<br \/>\nmust go to Johnneh for bringing along a very cool &#8216;Roswellian&#8217; carved pumpkin!<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the biggest thanks must go to Robyn herself, for taking the<br \/>\ntime to write this brilliant book and chronicle a very special part of<br \/>\nthe collective lives of everyone who has called FanForum\/Crashdown home<br \/>\nover the past three years. The book is beautifully written with loving<br \/>\nattention to detail, and Robyn has really outdone herself! :-)<\/p>\n<p>There has been a lot of interest from people who could not attend the<br \/>\nlaunch about the possibility of still receiving a signed copy of the<br \/>\nbook. While we can&#8217;t promise anything, Robyn and I are currently trying<br \/>\nto accomodate this request by working something out between FanForum and<br \/>\nECW Press &#8212; so stay tuned!<\/p>\n<p>Thanks again to all who attended the book launch &#8230; happy reading! :-)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to black widow for sending this in :) Crash Into Me&#8217; Book Launch: An Out-Of-This-World Success!
