Fifty to sixty friends and family attended the BODY AND BONE release party on June 25, and we didn’t wrap until 2 a.m. As a thank you to guests, we gave away BODY AND BONE swag–hats, mugs and t-shirts emblazoned with main character Nessa Donati’s radio show logo, and/or her fictional employer, Altair Satellite Radio’s logo. We also gave away guitar pick earrings, which are a clue from the novel (see all giveaways below). Great party, great music, great friends, especially the Whittens, who came all the way from Pennsylvania to be part of the festivities.
