That's amazing! Congratulations on the review!

I'm sorry for your loss. I think anyone could understand why you didn't do much in the way of promotions. I'm so happy that your publisher got you reviews and that they are turning out so fantastic.

Thank you. Doesn't look like very many people are buying it though. Not surprising since I didn't do the promo I would have done.

Congratulations on your amazing review! (And my condolences on your loss). Are you thinking of doing some promo now? Is there anything I could help with? I don't have a huge blog readership, but I do have a handful of Twitter followers and a few hundred on Tumblr if you have things you'd like circulated.

Oh that's sweet thank you. I'll have to add you I'm Lisa Whitefern on everything.

Samhain did make this banner for me.

Dude. Your writing *is* rivetting. I read that one a few years ago, it was the best thing I'd read in a long time.

Wow! Thanks you so much. It went through about 20 incarnations since then. lol I rewrote it numerous times over a lot of years. while writing short stories for other publishers and zines. It kind of my first novel completely reworked to be a sequel to my first actually published novel, which was my second completed novel.

Which I realize is all very strange, but it worked out in the end.

Congrats, Lisa! That's awesome! I completely understand a novel cycling through 20 iterations, lol!

I'm very sorry to hear about your husband's death. I'm sure he'd be very proud of you right now, though.
