Book Launch - A Slice of Happy

Book Launch Party on Thursday October 2nd, 2014 from 7:30pm - 9:00pm at ASHANTI CAFE Collingwood to celebrate the release of Author Heather Korol's new book A Slice of Happy.  Signed copies will be available for purchase. This will be a red carpet event, so bring your glitter and your gold (card).
Author Heather Korol, a wife and working mom-of three believes that our happiness is masked by the struggle to balance the competing forces in our lives. The more she examined who had the whole pie, the more she recognized that no one had all of the slices at once. Her journey from "motivational know-it-all" to "holy crap, I can't do-it-all" is told in an honest humorous style that will make you feel like you're hanging out in your kitchen with your best friend while you lament unloading the dishwasher for the millionth time.

Come and celebrate with us at Ashanti Cafe Collingwood  I'm offering free coffee, pie and a glass of champagne for all my guests! Signed copies will be available for purchase. This will be a red carpet event, so bring your glitter and your gold (card).
Heather's story will help women in their quest to find perspective, pick a slice, and enjoy a bit more happiness along the way.  RSVP to heather@heatherkorol.com
 
"This is not a book with a secret answer or plan that will transform your life from misery to magical existence. A Slice of Happy reminds women that they are not alone, they won't be tired forever and that there is hope. The book will inspire you to grab a coffee or a glass of wine and find, your own "Slice of Happy" -Tina Comi, Author of: Till Dance Do Us Part.
