The Church of the Incarnation
February 10, 2015 12:30 - 2:30 pm I keep busy with public events, but I also do private ones. Last year, I had one of my most enjoyable events ever with the Women's Probus Club of Newmarket. So, I am really looking forward to sharing Theft By Chocolate with a new group of chocolate and fiction lovers! |
I will be sharing a table with some other Toronto authors so I do hope you will drop by.

In-store Event at Chapters Indigo
John & Richmond Streets, Toronto February 9, 2014 1:00 to 5 pm Just in time to pick up that unique Valentine's present, please drop by Chapters where I will be on hand for a meet & greet. Pick up a signed copy of the book and then pair it with, perhaps, some chocolate and a bottle of wine for a truly unique Valentine's gift - even if it's for yourself! And fill out a ballot to win a free copy of the book as well as a selection of Purdys Mayan Chocolate. Purdys have been a great supporter of the book and I can assure you that this Canadian chocolatier makes truly divine chocolate. |

Ancaster Public Library & Beanermunky ChocolateNovember 13, 2013 @ 7 pm - Ancaster
Going back to do readings from my book in the town in which I attended public and high school is going to be quite the trip for me. Back then, however, I was known as Lucy Kulchyckyj, was a skinny little runt and I wore Coke-bottomed glasses that took over my face. But I am hoping some of my old school mates might turn up, especially since the generous folks at Beanermunky are once again sponsoring the event. So it promises to be yet another informative and delicious evening at which a good time is sure to be had by all at the APL. |
THEFT BY CHOCOLATE LAUNCHES ABROAD!
Last year, I had hoped to participate in the UK's internationally renowned Chocolate Week festivities. It was not meant to be. But this year, I will be participating in not one, but TWO, events.
The first event will be at Choccywoccydoodah's London Shop in their exclusive "Secret Room." I reference their exquisite chocolate in Theft By Chocolate a few times, so what more befitting spot for my international debut! Check out the listing. While in London, I will also be attending London's first Salon du Chocolat. It's tough work, but someone has to do it. Much research will be done! And from there, it's off to Edinburgh to Coco Chocolate. Here, the Bruntsfield Place shop will be hosting an intimate event in a wonderfully cozy setting. Check out the listing. And I couldn't leave the city without going on one of their Chocolate Tours. Paradise here I come. If you or friends would like to participate, you can purchase tickets for either event at the following link. It will most definitely be worth the trip across the pond. London and Edinburgh |

Word on the Street
September 22, 2013 11:00 am to 6:00 pm - Toronto
I had so much fun last year that I decided to return to Canada's largest book and magazine festival. This year, I will have my own booth and, though I will have a roof over my head, please join me in praying to the weather gods for a gorgeous fall day. More details about the time my booth will be open and its location will follow. It's such a fun festival (lots of street food to boot), so especially if you have never been to the fest, you should come down to the city's core.
And the winner is...I held a raffle for those who purchased a copy of my book at the festival and the prize was a Kobo Mini eReader. The lucky winner was Vanessa Selics of Mississauga.
