Handbag Monday with 
...Laurel Wanrow 
Hi Vicki, Thanks for having me over today! Though we’ve met numerous times through RWA, I never knew what a handbag girl you were, probably because all—well, 95 percent—of us are carrying great little bags at conferences. LOL. I hate to admit it, but day-to-day I make do with a zipper-pocketed travel pouch. However, when it’s time to dress up, I transfer my basics to a beaded bag:
Ha! It’s probably not what most of your readers expected, but this fits me perfectly! I love nature and gardening and have planted my postage-stamp yard to attract butterflies and hummingbirds. And the best part? The butterfly is purple, my favorite color!

Simply delightful, Laurel. Most times, I carry something small for evenings out!

I love bright colors and so does my Victorian artist heroine, who happens to carry just as unconventional of a handbag…which I’ll wait to share with you and your readers when I visit you on July 8th at Get Lost In A Story.

I know we’ll be discussing my debut release there, so for now can I leave your readers with just this teaser for The Unraveling?
A proper Victorian artist must learn to use her bloodline's wild magic to help the shapeshifter she loves, or become what she fears most: another cog in a magnate's plan to control agriculture.

My steampunk fantasy romance is on a preorder sale before it releases June 23rd.

I often update my author page on Facebook  (https://www.facebook.com/laurelwanrowauthor) so stop by to chat!

Have a great Monday!

Laurel

It is! Thanks for celebrating with me. :) Does it become old hat with future books, or just as exciting?

Vicki Batman, sassy writer said...

Every book is exciting for me!

Beautiful bag! I do like beaded bags, although I would never carry one, I can admire it! LOL

Lovely cover and lovely handbag, Laurel. Congrats on the upcoming release!

Vicki, oh good!

D'Ann, you might be wise--they are heavier than the average bag.

stanalei, thanks! I'm having fun with it. :)

So happy, Stanalei and D'Ann, that you could visit with Laurel.

What a pretty bag. I would worry that I would break it. I'm so harsh on things like my bags and the walls! :)

I love butterflies and it's Purple! The two make for one perfect bag. And I bet a paperback of your book would fit rather nicely it there too! Good luck with your upcoming release. It sounds great too! :-)

LOL, Melissa. Honestly, I keep it for dress-up.
J.M., I think we are kindred souls. :)
Thanks, everyone for visiting!
