Instead of an author interview and book giveaway this week, I am offering up a few sneak peek pictures from our photo shoot earlier this week for Restoring Harmony. If you’ve been here before, then you probably know all about the fabulous Sarah Tradewell and how she looks just like Molly, the main character in my book, and the amazing story about how we met, but I thought you might like to see some of the fun we had this week.

Sarah and her parents drove up from Victoria to our island and my husband did a photo shoot with Sarah. He is putting together a book trailer using still photos, text, and music (to be released later this fall after he figures out how to do it when I re-launch my new and improved website). Right after I announce the two winners of the Donut Days books from last week’s giveaway, I’ll share with you some of the extra photos that he took.

The winners of their very own copies of Donut Days are: Marmite & Tea and Jessica! Congratulations!

P.S. I was interviewed by the lovely Larramie over at The Divining Wand today, so drop on over there and make me look popular!

And now for the photos. Just click on them to see them bigger.

Here is me with Sarah.

Sarah playing her fiddle – during the shoot, my husband, who LOVES fiddle music, thought it would look more authentic if Sarah played, so she did. There were several times when he’d actually gotten the shot he wanted, but he pretended to keep shooting just so she’d keep playing!

And here is Sarah in the recording studio. My husband is also a musician and so the two of them recorded four of the tunes from my book, including one called Brianna’s Reel that Sarah wrote just for me for my book! They sound amazing. They’re getting mixed still, but once I have them available, I will share (if I can figure out how to add an audio file to my site).

Sarah just sent more snaps, so I thought I’d add them in! Here they are.
