I offered to sign any of my books that Koota Ooma had on hand, thinking they might have a half a dozen or so. Much to my delight, they had a PILE &#8212; and a great variety! The first pen ran out of ink! So, if you&#8217;re looking for an autographed copy of Winterkill etc, you know where to get it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also did some shopping. Look at those beautiful necklaces! And picked up a fantastic book, The Zelensky Effect. You can get one too &#8212; an autographed copy, no less because later on Wednesday, author Olga Onuch had her book launch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"922\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.calla.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/koota-922x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.calla.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/koota-922x1024.jpg 922w, https:\/\/www.calla.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/koota-270x300.jpg 270w, https:\/\/www.calla.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/koota-135x150.jpg 135w, https:\/\/www.calla.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/koota.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was great popping in to Koota Ooma Ukrainian Book and gift store this past Wednesday on my way home from Toronto after an informative brain-picking session with with two knowledgeable academics for my novel-in-progress.
