RELEASE DAY!

UPDATE: IN NAME ONLY garnered its first review on Amazon! Four lovely gold stars! Read it here.

:::

Maybe my left eye will stop twitching now. Or tomorrow. Or next week.

My baby is finally out there on its own.

It's thrilling. It's scary. It's a little sad. Summer's nest is empty. But she's flying!

Getting IN NAME ONLY from a concept to a real book I can read on my Kindle and hold in my hands has been an amazing journey. And I had so much fun along the way. Despite how it may seem as I ranted over a few details here and there :)

For those of you who would like to read Summer Newcombe's story, here are direct links:

PAPERBACK












The next time you visit Amazon, today or whenever, I would also love it if you would click the LIKE button on my author page and by each of the books on it. Those LIKES figure into Amazon's algorithms in some way, and the more I have and my books have - just like YOUR pages and books - the better chance of showing up in Amazon promotions.

Thank you for anything you may do. I'll send you cyber coffee, chocolate, or wine in return :)

Also many thanks to those of you who are helping to spread the word around the interwebz this week for IN NAME ONLY.

I love all my followers.
You guys ROCK!

Arlee Bird said…
I can feel your excitement! And I don't blame you one bit. Hopefully I'll make it there as well eventually. I clicked the "like" button. I'd buy the book too, but right now...well I won't get into that.

Hope things explode for you over the next few weeks--bookwise that is. Wishing you a best seller.
