Sonia with her Advance Reading Copy of Freeways to Flip-Flops

I’m so excited to share my special day with you. Yesterday, I picked up my ARC’s (Advance Reading Copies) of my book: Freeways to Flip-Flops: A Family’s Year of Gutsy Living on a Tropical Island.

I’m happy to have met a wonderful French Canadian, Rene Gagnon, the  CEO of Allura Press, who printed my ARC’s.

I would like to invite my kind and generous blogger friends, Twitter companions, Facebook Groups, authors, writers and anyone from the media from the U.S., and around the world to let me know if you would like to participate in my upcoming Gutsy Virtual Book Tour.

    Sonia!
    I am so excited for you!! I am sorry I will not be able to attend today. This week is insane. Last week of school, kids are in a musical – dress rehearsal tonight – show opens tomorrow.

    Next week, starting on Tuesday, I will be partly “normal” again and want to connect with you, read you book and do an interview or review or both!

    How about next Thursday? Let me know your schedule. And again, huge congratulations for reaching this exciting milestone!

    All the best,
    Jil

      Jill, Thanks so much for all your support. I want to hear about your book and your new position with the newspaper. Are you planning any more travels with your kids? Cancun is nice.

    How fabulous! I’d really love to read your ARC but just don’t have time right now to read it in the time period. Can’t wait until it’s out and published for real.

    Congrats.

    Wow! Congratulations Sonia, this is fantastic news and I’m so excited for you having followed your story for the last year. What I want to know is how is it possible to purchase one of your advance copies as I would love to read it in the near future. Once again well done, you must feel so pleased!
    By the way how was Paris? Hope we can catch up on Skype one day soon before you become so sought after you are not available!

    Maggie,

    How was Senegal. You looked so happy on the photos there. I had a great time in Paris, London, where I met Muriel, the FrenchYummyMummy blogger. Did you go to WDS in Portland?
    Yes, Skype would be great. Just try one day and we can see if we are available at the same time.

    Hi Sonia,

    Congrats, that is exciting and brilliant to see a pic of you with the book. It feels as if we’ve been talking about it for years (maybe we have!) so I know how much work and anticipation has gone in to it.

    Of course you’re welcome to guest write for Get In the Hot Spot any time. When you’re ready if you send me premade tweets I’ll send those out too. I know everything helps:)

    In the meantime well done you:)
