I can't believe it. It's release day for Venture Untamed, my book about an aspiring prize fighter. If you've been following my posts on this board over the last few years, this is the book that won me representation twice. It's the book that straddles too many genres and was just too "guy" for some editors. It's the book I've always loved the most. It's incredible to finally have the chance to earn readers for this story.

Thanks, guys!

Yes, Drachen. The book went live on Amazon sometime Sunday afternoon, while I was at judo practice. When I got home, I saw that it was live and someone had bought it. And this morning I woke up to find that review.

It's a nice change from the Pit, where I usually hang out. Love my fellow Pitizens, though. (((Pit)))

Thanks, Kelly! Yes, it is about time. Almost 5 1/2 years. But I really believe it's the right time now.

Thanks all of you.

K Taylor, yes it is SO addictive. It seems staying sane is an on-going struggle no matter what stage we're in or what route we take as writers.

Glad to see another MMA fan here!
