Book Release - TODAY!

Today my book is up on Amazon. I didn't schedule any blog tours, and in fact, I haven't even announced it on Facebook yet. I have trouble promoting myself. Maybe I should pretend this book belongs to someone else. I can always sing someone else's praises.

If you haven't read Alex Cavanaugh's guest post on maintaining momentum, scroll down to the previous post and read it. My problem is ... I don't have a lot of momentum to maintain!

So I'm telling my followers here ... if you purchase The Last Daughter, I hope you'll review it on Amazon, tweet about it, talk about it on GoodReads. Even if you don't like it, I hope you'll review it. It's the silence that's the killer--not the bad reviews.

This is an exciting day. Very different from holding a print book in my hands, but fun just the same. Celebrate with me.

Problem: An Unwelcome Situation

Sorry I haven't posted lately. I've been plagued with email/Internet/FB problems. Seemingly, they have no solutions for me.

I've used AOL as my primary email address since 2001 but suddenly, it doesn't like me anymore so I'm in the process of doing away with it. When you're as techie-ignorant as I am, that's not easy. I can't even speak the Internet lingo so when I have to deal by phone with others who can't speak the lingo I'm in even more trouble. And remember, I'm a packrat, so I have hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of saved emails stashed in folders. I hate to lose them.

I'll be away a few more days but hopefully, after Labor Day, I can start posting again on a regular basis.

Of course, I'm presuming I'm missed.

Please say a prayer for those in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama who are losing their homes because of Hurricane Isaac. It seems odd that we're not part of hurricane season this year and that we're watching it play out on TV.

Have a safe Labor Day weekend.
