Well, after many long years of dreaming, I finally got ‘that’ moment. I walked into a bookstore, and found my own book on the shelf!
Needless to say, it was an awesome experience.
I’ve also seen pictures of it in familiar bookstores from around the country, and I’m beginning to think it’s something that won’t get old.
So, today’s post is a call to action. Please, if you see Edgar’s Worst Sunday for sale in a bookstore near you, take a picture and send it to me here. Let me know where it’s from, and I’ll share it proudly.
Every bit of support is appreciated, and taking photos isn’t the only way you can help. But everyone knows, help does not come cheap, so I’m happy to make this a bit more interesting.
Below is a list of small actions you can take to help Edgar’s Worst Sunday reach as many readers as possible. For anyone willing to take part in any and all—with evidence for the review—you can contact me here to be entered into a draw for a free signed copy of Edgar’s Worst Sunday!
How you can help out:
That’s it! Those small tasks could help out immensely, and win you not only a world of gratitude from yours truly, but also enter you into the draw to win your own signed copy. The draw will be held on Dec. 16th—so get those reviews in to win your personalized copy! Want a dedication? You got it. Want a poem, haiku, or ad-lib homily about your endless generosity? Just ask!

Last Sunday, Nov. 4th, I held the official launch party for my novel, ‘Edgar’s Worst Sunday’. At the Tavern on Whyte, I shared laughs and stories with old friends and new, readers and writers, family and locals as we celebrated this incredible moment for myself, and for Brad OH Inc. To everyone that was there, I want to extend my most sincere thanks.
As mentioned, the book is now available on Amazon, at Chapters, and wherever you get your books. I also have a few copies remaining to sell, so if you’re local give me a shout and I can get a copy to you, as well as an autograph if you’d like.
For those of you who have grabbed your copies, if you’d be willing to leave a review on Amazon.ca, Amazon.com, and/ or Goodreads.com, my gratitude would be all the greater. These reviews really help increase the book’s standing, and allows it to become a recommended purchase.
Once more, thanks to everyone who has shown me love and support in this thrilling time. As I said in my speech, I’ve been truly humbled—and if you know me, that really is saying something.

Today, I’m happy to announce that my new novel, ‘Edgar’s Worst Sunday’, is now officially available for purchase at Amazon.com, Chapters.ca, and anywhere else you get your books!
In life, Edgar Vincent always maintained one great passion—himself. A semi-successful composer, his rock star lifestyle suited him well, and his narcissistic outlook ensured he was a man with few concerns. Callous comments, thoughtless promiscuity, binge drinking, and excess sufficient to shame Caligula were standard Saturday night fare.
Sundays for Edgar had always been a painful haze of sickness and regret.
So, when Edgar finds himself in the cloudy planes of the afterlife on one particularly bleak Sunday morning, he determines that in order to find peace, he must put aside his ever-present hangover and try to figure out how he ever got to this point…and where he’s meant to be going now. But as Edgar makes his way through this surreal spiritual realm, he realizes that facing his death is hardly as difficult as facing himself.
Heaven, however, presents Edgar with an unending smorgasbord of hedonistic delights, so he’s in no particular hurry to change his self-serving ways. After all, considering he’s already dead, what more could he possibly stand to lose?

‘Edmonton: Unbound’ has now been on sale for six months, and has raised nearly $800 for the Edmonton Public Library. ‘Edmonton: Unbound’ is available through Amazon, and can also be purchased at the giftshop of the Muttart Conservatory, as well as at Audrey’s Books.
‘Edmonton: Unbound’ contains fourteen stories by twelve members of the Edmonton Writers’ Group. They are unified only by the common theme of their current hometown, Edmonton, AB. Ranging from simple domestic interactions, to futuristic sci-fi adventures, to deep psychological introspections, these stories take a look at Edmonton from viewpoints as different as the writers themselves. This anthology is a love letter to our hometown, and demonstrates our incredibly varied approaches to literature, and to life.
As a gesture of our gratitude, all proceeds from the sales of this book have been donated to the Edmonton Public Library, which has been gracious enough to host our humble group at the Capilano branch for over a decade and a half.

To celebrate the culmination of this fantastic project, we have one final interview with the ‘Edmonton: Unbound’ author, Annie Gionet.
1.Tell us about where your inspiration came from for the world you describe in your story.
Annie Gionet: The world Reya lives in was derived from Pagan communities that escaped the Spanish Inquisition and their witch hunts during the medieval times. It is meant to be a fantastical alternative to our gruesome reality and history.
2.What was the creative process like for you working on this story?
Annie Gionet: Reya’s story was written by using a focal point of a refuge for esoterica and then expanding on it and letting my imagination take over. Choosing how to develop fantasy that is heavily derived from our world was an experience of the senses and imagination that brought my writing to make a place where anything was possible and unseen dangers lurked at every corner. It is meant to draw your subconscious mind to a world that inspires your greatest wishes and leads you to your darkest fears.
3.Which authors inspired you to write fantasy and what interests you most about writing fantasy?
Annie Gionet: One of my favourite authors, that I admire would be Mercedes Lackey.
4.Why is Fantasy your favourite genre to write in?
Annie Gionet: I love writing fantasy because of the endless possibilities and inspiration. Your mind can create just about anything and moulding creative thoughts into a story that catches a reader by surprise is one of the most satisfying experiences I have ever had. Connecting with an audience on such intimate feelings in mind twisting intricate situations is definitely, a great passion of mine.
Annie Gionet’s story, “People of the Doma”, is featured in ‘Edmonton: Unbound’, which you can purchase on Amazon.
Remember, you can also get a copy of ‘Edmonton: Unbound’ in the giftshop of the Muttart Conservatory, as well as at Audrey’s Books.
Our thanks to authors Brian Clark and Simon MacKintosh for their hard work in making this release more widely available.
