launch of smiling at grief in a house in a forest where life grows

Thank you to everyone who attended the launch. We had some fantastic questions on a summer evening for this Solstice novel. If you missed the launch you can catch up here:

Lots of wondeful comments after the launch including this from poet, Gill McEvoy:

I was overcome by a strange sense of both sadness and celebration, that a community so small, and so interdependent could make a new life after such  terrible disaster. The weaving of the forest truths above and below the main text were very close to my heart. I get  very upset at what is happening to our natural world and I think you have elucidated this very clearly in your book.

This from herbalist, Annette Egan:

The book is wonderfully written and so beautifully descriptive and the concept of the different voices is so unique. I felt it stirs you to face some uncomfortable truths. Very powerful.
