I couldn't put it down

Just returned from an Island Women meeting and am blown away by praise for my book, A Shocking & Unnatural Incident.

"This should be in every library."
"This should be read in schools."
"I couldn't put it down. I'm telling you the truth."
"Someone will surely pick up the second book."

She means a traditional publisher. Well, traditional publishers had enough chances to buy it.

"Important issue."
"Well written."
"Doesn't fit our list."

That's about how it ran.

But I'm thrilled. There is no greater blessing or surge of emotion than when a reader buttonholes an author and repeats how much she enjoyed a book and how much she is looking forward to--can't wait to read!--the next one.

Thank you all!
