      I hope you are faring better today.

Dan reads a lot and is very picky about what he reads….it is an awesome book from what i have been able to read . im not very far lol…but medication has me out a lot. i dont like it but i dont have a choice i guess. now he likes it so much he will be waiting for a second one ya know ….when he finds an author he really likes he waits and watches for more…LOL just so ya know …and he really likes yours….you already have a fan following ha ha ha

  2. DUDE CONGRATS! YOU’RE DEFINITELY GOING TO SUCCEED, and I’ll definitely feel a little jealous once I’m not one of a few people who’s read this book, but one of the many many fans who eagerly await the next installment. (Aiming for a trilogy or a septology? or hex- or quartet or quint- or ya know…)

    • Wow – your enthusiasm and optimism astounds me! If only it will make it like you hope, I will be thrilled beyond reckoning!

You could probably make some blog posts about your attempts to publish and edit this thing too, once it gets that far…

Tell me something!
