her primary career focus
seems to have. shifted
momentarily to writing.

Going with her ‘‘gut feel-
ing,’’ Knazan_ decided to
publish ‘‘Party Secrets’? on
her own after experiencing
‘“thassles” with a = local
publisher. The book largely
evolved from her own ex-
periences as an actress and
parent.

“When kids are. small,
their birthday parties are
their moment. So | wanted to
make their parties really
special. | used to plan a big
production for thei parties
and once word got around,
everyone wanted to come to
my partties,”” says Knazan

The book has already
taken off) to date, Knazan
has had orders from mayor

toy store chains, plus a large

office supply stationery
store She does her own pro
motion,  bitting markets
mothers wall frequent, and

has ‘been on the Vancouver
Show on CKVU this month.

Fisher says Knazan_ is
typical of the type of guest
lecturer the drop-ins want to

attract. Local RCMP Cst.
Alison Irons has also been a
popular guest in the past

discussing child abuse, how
to ‘‘streetproof’’ children,
and self defence for women.

The drop-ins operate under
the auspices of the North
Shore Family Services, who
are funded by the United

Way, Ministry of Human
Resources, all three North
Shore municipalities, the
Ministry of the Attorney
General, and the federal
government
