Time to be Determined

 

PAST EVENTS:

Oh yes . . . We made reservations to sail to England on the Queen Mary 2 next year, on May 1, 2022, God willing and the variants don’t rise! And wouldn’t it be fun if this time you come along with us for real? Think about it! You wouldn’t have to be crushed into suitcases and smuggled aboard and dance in the dark this time! Because yesterday I called Cunard to see what I could do to make that happen.♥️ I spoke to Susan Gannon and she said if you’d like to sail with us next year, you can call her at 800-468-7752 ext. 41663 and she will personally help make your reservations. You will have to mention that you’re part of the Susan Branch Girlfriends group, give them this group number: TNM, and voyage #M211 so they can keep track of us as a group . . . If there’s enough of us they’ll have special group pricing and other surprises. They had to cancel their entire spring and summer itinerary this year, which means that many of the people that didn’t get to go this year, will be going next year. So think fast! You would have to make a deposit, but you can cancel with complete refund if you do it by December 31, 2021, this year. It would give you extra time to decide for sure. Susan can answer any questions you have and you can call her anytime. This isn’t a tour like the kind you read about, where you have a “tour guide.” It’s more like one of our picnics, only on the ship!🚢

 

Lots of events as Susan celebrated her newest book, Home for Christmas!  Scroll down to see dates and times: Virtual Zoom parties from bookstores all over America, and you’re all invited! “Sunday Afternoon Tea with Susan,” through the fall and holiday season all the way to December. Please check back for dates, times, and links to sign up ~ something you can put on your calendar!

NOTE:  Each bookstore has its own policy, and handles tickets the way that works best for their business. I’m just a guest! If they require you to buy a book and you already have one, you can either purchase one for a gift, OR, look for another event where they allow guests without requiring a book purchase. They’re all different!♥️

NOVEMBER 8, 2020, 4pm EST. The Women’s Exchange of Winnetka, Illinois has hosted Susan several times with lovely tea parties in a beautiful large room filled with Girlfriends and flowers, tea cakes and sandwiches, and is now holding their first virtual Zoom event, November 8, 2020 at 4 pm EST. Tickets for our Christmas Tea are $20, and tax deductible, benefiting Women’s Exchange community for women. A slide show and special door prizes will be part of the event. Bring your cup of tea, cakes, and sandwiches and join us! Sign up HERE to receive your Zoom invitation.💖

We have TWO virtual Tea Party Events in October 2020 (also one in November and one in December, details to come) ~ BYO Cuppa! I’ll meet you at my kitchen table!The first October event will be via Zoom on Sunday, October 18, at 4 pm EST for Bookends Bookstore in Ridgewood, NJ … you can sign up HERE. Yes, there will be signed books and door prizes!The very next Sunday, October 25th, we’ll be hosted by the wonderful King’s English Bookshop in Salt Lake City, Utah, for a Crowdcast event …. you can register HERE.

Please Join us on September 20, for a Virtual Sunday Afternoon Christmas Tea Party
presented by the wonderful people at Titcombs Bookshop, just over the water on the Cape, from 3:30 to 4:30 pm
EST ~ BYO Tea
because you’re all invited to my first book event, Zoom Webinar for my new Home for Christmas book! Here’s where you can sign up! If you don’t know how to do Zoom, you can Google “Youtube how to use Zoom” and they will show you. It’s just a matter of which buttons to push ~ it’s easy. When you sign up, they will send you an invitation to our zoom party … which will have a link for you to click on the day of the event. Put it on your calendar!❤️

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

This Mother’s Day 2020 Event (below) was canceled due to Covid … and changed to a Zoom Webinar for August 18 and 19, 2020. You can access it on YouTube … 💞

 I hope you can join me for a 
Mother’s Day Tea/Twine booksigning event in Duxbury, Massachussets! It’s going to be amazing. Picture a room filled with spring flowers, teapots and garden clippings, with grandmothers, mothers, daughters and sisters (Husbands, grandfathers, dads, and brothers are welcome too!), a room filled with friendship, community, connection, books, hats, England, joy, kindred spirits, and a catered meal (they’re making recipes from my books!) that has both a Julia Child, AND a Prince Harry and Meghan connection ~ all in celebration of Mother’s Day!!! YES! YES! YES! We want everyone who would like to come, to join us … so we decided to do not one, but two events to make sure everyone gets a ticket. The first event will be a catered “Light Supper with Wine” (Twine!) on Wednesday, May 6, from 4 to 7 pm. The next day, on Thursday, May 7, from 1 to 3 pm, we’re having “An English Lunch with Tea.” For both events, I’ll be doing a presentation ~ I’m thrilled to be doing a show and tell with my favorite photos of the English Countryside, a little bit about history, maybe a dab of ancestry, and every wonderful thing I can think of about Beatrix Potter, including our Picnic at Castle Cottage. On top of that, each guest will receive their very own copy of the first chapter of ENCHANTED, my new book-in-progress! Andrea, the person in charge of this event, has many other little surprises, but they’re a secret . . . she’s as excited as I am. So, what’s on your calendar for May??? Registration begins 8 am, March 24th … online at www.duxburyseniorcenter.org ~ they’ve put nothing on their website yet, it’s too early. Put “Tickets!” on your calendar for March 24th so you don’t forget! Bring your mom, your sister, your best friend, and come! New England is beautiful in May!

Castle Cottage BYO Picnic-Basket Party!

Remember the BYO Picnic-Basket Party we had in Stourhead in England last September? We’re going to do it again!  Mark your calendars for May 11, 2018, at noon o’clock. Because, once again, you’re all invited! We’ll be meeting as many of our Girlfriends as possible, whoever can come, from everywhere! And because of serendipity and wild stretches of the imagination, this time we will be spreading our picnic blankets on the lawn across the meadow from Beatrix Potter’s Hill Top, in the garden of Castle Cottage, in Far Sawrey, in the Lake District, where Beatrix Potter lived for 30 years with her husband Willie Heelis! I’m not kidding!

We will walk where she walked and be where she was, and sit where she drank her tea, amongst the bluebells and frolicking lambs. And we want you all to join us. Joe will be there, and all your Fairy Tale Guys are invited too. And if you can’t come in person, then you will just have to join us virtually . . . I’ll take tons of photos, and post the whole thing on my Blog, and take you all along, on the ship, to England, to Ireland, and to the picnic too, tucked into our basket, but only if you promise not to eat all the stuffed eggs.

My girlfriends from the Beatrix Potter Society, American Betsy Bray, and English Mandy Marshall (who actually lives at Castle Cottage, and will be our hostess there) will be leading a luv-lee Lake District Tour next May that will culminate at the Picnic ~ it’s limited space and will be announced next month in Pottering About (the Beatrix Potter Society e-Newsletter), but you, my darlings, are the FIRST to know … leave your name on Betsy’s site for first-come-first-serve and learn more HERE . . .

Also, we’ve had several requests on my Blog to connect Girlfriends who want to come, but would like a kindred-spirit Traveling Partner ~ such a good idea! So, that’s exactly what we’re doing: Here’s how: 1.) Go to my Facebook Page (FOSB) and leave a comment that you are looking for a Traveling Partner for the BYO Picnic-Basket Party at Castle Cottage on May 11, 2018. 2.) Suggest that interested parties private-message you to connect. (Please don’t put your personal contact info on FOSB … your privacy is important.) 3.) Check your messages for contacts ~ and be sure to check your “other” messages, which are messages from people you are not Facebook friends with (yet). 4.) Watch for posts from other FOSB who are looking for a Traveling Companion. Don’t be shy, be brave, take a chance, be ready for adventure, make contact, private message them! Then get busy and make your reservations. Manchester airport is closest to the Lake District, but there are also trains from London. Okay, you are on your own from here! Hope to see you there. Us, from all over the world, converging on Castle Cottage, it’s BeaStock 2018! Here’s your name tag: Just print it out on card stock and bring it with you! Write your name Big!🎵 By the time we get to BeaStock we’ll be half-a-jillion strong . . . 🎶 We are stardust, we are golden and we’ve got to get back to the garden . . . 🎵

CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA:  Sunday, March 11, at 6 pm, Meet Susan and Joe for a book talk and signing at the Barnes and Noble, Westwood Plaza. Come and wish them Bon Voyage on their last evening in America before they cross the wild Atlantic on the MS Queen Victoria.

Here’s a link for a virtual tour of the Queen Victoria. Susan and Joe board the ship on March 9, stopping in Charleston for one night, and arriving in Southampton, England on March 23.

Susan wrote, “When I paint, I test brush & watercolor strength on paper, then cut them up for bookmarks. I’ll bring some for a giveaway to the Charleston book signing on March 11.”

Book and Calendar Signings

My twenty-three-city book tour this May and June of 2016 is in celebration of, and with gratitude to, the small Independent Bookstores, their dedicated owners and hard working staffs, who’ve managed to hold on through the changing times, Independent Bookstoressupporting their local economies by providing jobs, assisting their local libraries, and giving us much needed charm wherever they are, windows filled with books, books that fly from ceilings, the smell of coffee and books, tables of books and paper and all the tangible real-life things we love. Without them, I, as an author would have never existed, because it’s those individual voices from bookstore employees who’ve said to their customers (who’s taste they make it their business to know), “Here, have you read this?” that have made all the difference. ♥ Please help me in supporting them with your business. Scroll down to check out the Coming Events for a store near you.  I’ll be signing all three books in this finally-finished trilogy, The Fairy Tale Girl, Martha’s Vineyard, Isle of Dreams (the newest), and A Fine Romance, Falling in Love with the English Countryside. Hope to see you there!

  1. John Cheney says:

    Good morning. I’d like to surprise my wife with a one-on-one phone conversation with Susan for her birthday on August 28. I’d be willing to pay a nice fee for a 15 minute chat with my wife. We were signed up for two of the book tour dates but COVID bit us both. She signed up for the Plainfield and Wheaton events but we were unable to travel. She did receive her signed book from Prairie Path books, but is nonetheless sad she didn’t get to hear and meet Susan. I would be willing to pay $500 for a 15 minute phone chat if Susan would consider this for my wife. She owns every book Susan has written!

    You can reach me at the email and phone number under my name.

    Thanks in advance for your consideration.

  5. Sheri Miglio says:

    Hi Susan.
    My BFF Sheila and I have had some serious life happenings. We just can’t wait any longer to meet you and express our appreciation to you for a lifetime of lifting our spirits. I’ve always loved your artwork (the large blotter has hung in my kitchen year after year) but Sheila introduced me to your book. Then I gave her another one of your books. Then she gave me a recipe book. So on and so on ha ha. Our dream is to venture to Martha’s Vineyard to see you which brings me to my question. Do you have plans or dates for book signing etc…on Martha’s Vineyard in 2023? We thought we should meet here in earth first so we’ll know each other in Heaven 🙂

      I sent your comment to Kellee . . . you might try refreshing the site on your computer … I haven’t heard that from others, so it may just be a little glitch. Fingers crossed!

    Hi Susan! Happy New Year! My friend Anne and I LOVE all your cookbooks and especially your Wall Calendar! Every year for the past 25 years I get a calendar for each of us. We love knowing we are looking at the same calendar each day! I just went online (I know a little late) to order them and every website yours, Your publisher, Michaels, Target, Amazon are all sold out:o( Will you be making any more to be sold? May you please let me know? I really want to keep up our special tradition. Thank you!

      Putting this in both places you left comments, pardon the duplication, just want to make sure you see it!

      I’m so sorry … every once in a while things change a little bit and suddenly we run out! Normally we don’t do that, but this year was somehow different and they are all gone. Due to printing numbers requirements, somewhere in the 10s of 1000s, the manufacturer can’t reprint after the new year. Not to mention, due to supply chain, a new printing wouldn’t get here until almost 2024!!

      UPDATE!!! WAS TOLD TO TRY MEIJERS, and at this moment, they have them!! 👏👏👏👏💖💖💖

    I would love to pay and get on the list for your Queen Elizabeth mug. Could you make my dream happen? This is for the mugs you mentioned in 2022 for 2023. Please add me to your Willard newsletter list too.

    Thanks in advance!

      I hope I can help … there is a link where I wrote about the cups on the post … you can tell it’s a link because the type is a different color. You can click on that and it will take you right to the cups, where you can read about them and see more photos. You can also go to the home page of my blog at susanbranch.com and click on shopping.That will take you to the cups too! And in the right hand column under WILLARD it shows how to sign up to get Willard in your email! Let me know if you have trouble! ♥️

  9. Hello Susan, I follow all your travels and happy places online in my Willard newsletter. Love them ! I forward Willard to my girlfriends, hoping it will cheer their day and enjoy the artwork as I do. I especially love the photos, artwork, and comments about your cat. I don’t trust people who don’t love animals. I’ve preordered my Queen Elizabeth tea cup as a birthday present to myself. Merry birthday to me !! Wishing you, Joe, and Jack many happy adventures. You and your artwork make this world a better, more creative place.

    Susan, I love your Willards–I wait to read them when I have lots of time to enjoy! It would be hard to say which I loved more: your art, your writing or the pictures of your home and travels. It is so much fun following all your adventures.

      Thank you Sharon ~ very kind words. My new post will be a challenge . . . it’s LONG. I have to learn when to stop, but one thing always seems to lead to another!!!

  11. Susan, I have been a loyal follower since early 2000 when a friend gave me one of your books. Again this thanksgiving my daughter requested that I make your pumpkin cheese cake which has become a family tradition to serve at our family Thanksgiving dinner. I love your posts and have pasted them on to friends. Thank you for sharing your stories, pictures and your travels. I wish you a very Merry Christmas from Virginia and a Happy New Year.
