Hi all,
Except for the ever present banner ad above, I don’t do much promo of my books on this blog. However, I am taking the opportunity to thank those that have kindly reviewed Loisaida recently. It’s especially gratifying that people who I “met” only through the work are now virtual friends. Today, I just made the Big Time, a review on the popular, Big Al’s Books and Pals. Big Al, you may recall, had a moment virtual of fame when a certain indie-author went postal after a fair but tough review of her now much parodied novel. Needless to say, I won’t be going over to curse him out for his review of my book. He didn’t put it up yet on the Amazon customer reviews, though I suspect it will be there shortly. Meantime, anyone who wants to find out more is welcome to visit the book’s page which links to other reviews, purchasing information and a preview of the paperback at googlebooks.
Yay! So happy for you, Marion — you deserve wider exposure for this book. It’s still one of my favorite indie reads.
Thanks, Susan! And feel free to drop in anytime.
Congrats Marion on the awesome review!
I’m not a big mystery reader, but I posted about your review on my Facebook because I do have friends who like that genre. Good luck to you! I hope your sales jump up quite a bit!
But I think the point of the review was that Big Al didn’t really think it was a mystery as much as it was a literary novel. I think anyone expecting a mystery is going to be disappointed. There is a mystery — but it’s not “who killed Ingrid”? It’s more why are some people complicit in their own destruction?
