"Meet The Author" Event @ Diva's...


Diva's Cupcakes & Coffee is proud to host...

MEET THE AUTHOR

Thursday, July 15th @ 7:00pm

featuring...

E.D. PEDERSEN

and his newest book,
ENIGMATARIUM



Enigmatarium is a story founded on light and darkness. It begins with Jack, a young man who is the victim of a magic beyond his imagining. This magic has come to be known as the Jester Spell. It is a spell that transforms its victim into a deformed marionette. This is but the first knife to cut away a shroud covering his entire world. As time passes for him and as new characters come into his life, he begins to realize that truth becomes the only pursuit in a world that continually
changes, a place where evil becomes good, enemy becomes friend and each new lie creates a seemingly endless prison of twists and turns. Together with some unlikely friends, they all strive to unravel the secrets of the Enigmatarium. But some secrets, they learn, are far more terrifying than anything they could ever fathom. And just when they think they may have figured it out, tragedy finds a way into their hearts.The Enigmatarium is a place where reality and fantasy combine with no clear boundaries, where time spans centuries, where magic and death go hand in hand with life and loss. And just as one world must endure its Onyx ruler, another world is simultaneously being governed by one of Pearl. Take the journey, play the game, trust no one and enter the Enigmatarium. It is waiting to welcome you to your fantasy.


About the Author...

E.D. Pedersen

E. D. Pedersen (Edwin Delaney Pedersen) was born on May 25th, 1980, in Nephi, Utah. He was raised in Spring City, a small town in central Utah. At a young age, he began illustrating characters. With great influences and fascination with horror and fantasy, at age 18, he created the first illustration of Happy Jack. That illustration grew, evolved and eventually paved the way for other characters that followed. At 19, he took some writing he had begun at age 14, combined them together and began writing Enigmatarium, a project that would take 15 years to complete.


This is a free event, open to any and all. The Author will have copies of the book, as well as merchandise, available for purchase. For more information please contact Diva's @ 801.485.0619

Book Signing @ Diva's

We are so excited to announce our newest venture here at Diva's...

Book Signing Events!

We have partnered up with local Authors and set up an intimate evening of readings, exclusive Q & A, book signings, and of course cupcakes, cupcakes and more cupcakes!
Our first event will be Tuesday, November 24th @ 6pm with author

Jennifer Anderson

and her book

"Ill Wind in Egypt"

“Khamsin” is the word for “50” in Arabic. In Egypt, it is the name given to the annual 50-day spring windstorm. The khamsin winds of 1983 uncover a reclining megalith, half-visible with its stone-faced guardian through the desert’s swirling sands. Television journalist Ava Barby finds her work annoyingly predictable. But there’s nothing at all ordinary when she reports the discovery of a pharaoh’s tomb. Surprisingly, the tomb contains no treasure for the pharaoh to use in his afterlife. What happens next will change history. Did ancient raiders steal the tomb’s treasures or was the theft more recent? In seeking answers, Ava finds herself involved in a mystery that erupts in murder.The scheme of an ancient despot creates terror with a twist as this enthralling tale is brought to life in Ill Wind in Egypt.


A bit About the Author...

Jennifer Anderson is a former foreign correspondent who now lives in Salt Lake City. She is the editor of the World News Forecast, a publication for subscribing news desks around the world. “The Pyramids of Giza tell Egyptians they are a great people. During and after a sojourn there as a television journalist in the 1980s, I felt driven to broadcast the splendor of the country’s venerable culture.”
She is now working on her next novel.



This is an open invitation to all, so feel free to bring your friends and family along too! And if you know of any local authors that would love to participate, please contact Gordon Wilkins @ 801.485.0619
