One of my favorite Tallahassee bookstores, aptly named “My Favorite Books,” stocks both new and used books with a special section featuring local authors. Imagine my delight to find my first novel, Mayhem at the Happy Valley Motor Inn and Resort displayed on the store’s shelves! It was quite a rush.
Here’s hoping these copies go to good homes where they’ll be nice and warm on these cold winter nights.
Peace, people!

I think this seals the deal for sure Leslie. You have official AUTHOR status.

A rip roaring rush, I imagine. Ever heard of SubStack.Com. You might want to check it out. Take about ten minutes and see if you can incorporate this tool to build an audience for your personal essays and your current and future prose.

How Exciting! My only book has been self-published on Lulu.com.
*Don’t use them, by the way.

Thanks for the advice! Amazon has been good as a self-publishing platform. Not perfect, but good. What’s the title of your book?

Would gladly once I’m done. Haven’t read this many pages (487) in a while. Will see how long it will take me to read it! It’s captivating so far …😊

I didn’t intend for the book to be that long, but my characters turned out to be pretty talkative. People tell me it’s a fairly quick read because it’s mostly dialogue.
