So Large an Animal launched with joy

Launching this book was a bigger joy than I had hoped. The Vancouver Museum Studio was a fabulous place for the event. I was blessed with an abundant, supportive and generous audience. The food we served was well received. Most importantly for me as a poet, I felt as if people really heard what I was trying to say. Thank you to those who came.
