We're currently planning and organising a promotional book tour for Jennifer Liston's second poetry collection, 17 poems: one for every year of innocence.
We hope that this will take place towards the end of the northern hemispheric summer: July, August, or September. Or maybe even October.
The author will travel to Ireland and read from and sign copies of her book at a few locations.
Stay tuned ... more information will be posted here as plans are confirmed.
