With excitement in my body, calmness in my soul and a whole lot of love in my heart, on October 16th around 3.30pm I stood forward in front of a large audience of much more than I could ever have wished for….somewhere close to 300 people made their way into a room I had dreamt up and all of a sudden it was real..It was all real…Everything I had dreamed and even all the illustrations of my dreams that I had drawn out in my fifteen notebooks were now a reality…
Aww Louise what a lovely read on a breezy Friday morning while having my cuppa tea 😍
I'm currently reading the book for the second time. I gave it to my Mam (86) to read and OMG she absolutely loved it......she talks about Granny Nancy now as if she knew her ❤️ Hope you have a good weekend xx
Such a beautiful piece of writing, Louise…so delighted that YOU are now recognising your own worth, not just as a fabulous WRITER, but a WONDERFULLY KIND HUMAN BEING 💕💕💕

Love you lots Joan & thank you sooo much for your kind kind words & friendship. Someday we will meet. Please hold before Christmas. Sending u a big hug & thank you so much for your kind word & love that u love the book xxx
Louise! What an amazing post. I am so thrilled for you - how incredible (although unsurprising) that folks came out in their numbers to lift you up and celebrate this book. Only think of how Granny Nancy lives on through you and through your words, and now in the minds of who knows how many readers. That’s quite a thought! She’ll be everywhere. Bet she’d be astonished. Lots of love xx
Awwww Elaine x love u lots.

I will never forget the launch in the Hamlet Court Hotel. Myself and Kira were so lucky to meet you and spend the evening in your company. With Christmas so near it may be the New Year before the tour reaches Cavan but we'll be waiting for you.Take care of yourself xx
Hi Louise. Having listened to your “I Am a Writer” post am eagerly waiting for my copy. Ten working days now since ordering, so hoping to see Postie on doorstep Monday morning with Granny Nancy in his hand. Any idea how long delivery to Scotland is taking? Sending much love, Beth. 💖X. PS, My tecky skill is so limited it has taken me forever to manage to complete this message. Would need a crash course from Kiddie Winks to get this octogenarian anywhere near proficient!! BethX.
