As webmaster, I asked Lee Paine for feedback on her book talk & signing. Here’s what she had to say:
“The Perrot is such a lovely place to give a book talk! I'm pleased to say that it went even better than I had hoped - there were 22 people in person and 35 on-line, and I sold several books and signed even more for those who had purchased the book elsewhere. I've had really positive feedback on the talk, which is so appreciated! The talk was taped, for which I am grateful, and when I receive the link, I will send it out so that everyone can judge for themselves!

Quite a few people took my Revelations business cards with information about my website, www.leepainewriter.com, so I hope the word spreads further, and that I will have a flood of people taking the survey on my website for people who have had revelations experiences. My Mission is to lift this subject up into the light, and create a safe on-line space where the discovery and exchange of information about "extraordinary revelations" can be continued.”
