Kew and Emma's launch

[lathany]

On Maundy Thursday, Emma was in London for the launch of her fourth book in the Planetfall series (called Atlas Alone). It was an evening event at Waterstones. I arrived early and had a cream tea in the basement cafe. Then the book launch itself had wine. It was called Titans of Sci-Fi: Alastair Reynolds, Emma Newman and Temi Oh in conversation with Pat Cadigan and involved the four authors up on stage talking about their books. It was really good to see Emma again and particularly nice that she was also pleased to see me. I bought her and Temi Oh's books and got them signed.

The Sunday before we travelled as a family to Kew to meet with Chris V, Krys and Emilia.



It was a good day. We had decent weather and Emilia was mostly well-behaved. We had lunch at Ask and generally pottered around.
