Thank you, sir! Your book is in my to-read stack...i have to finish up some non-fiction and then i'm into the Goodreads authors...i believe you are 3rd or 4th in queue. :-) But i'm quite looking forward to it.
Thanks Charles for adding me as a friend. I'd love for you to visit my web site, jeanniebarber.com. I'm a novice writer so feel free to make any kind of suggestions, ideas or thoughts to correct it. I’m co-authoring a novel with Patty Wiseman, another friend on Goodreads. We’ve known each other for over 30 years. While you're there, please sign the guestbook, too! There’s also a link to our book you can click on…clairkelley@synthasite.com. This site is brand new and in the editing stage as is our story. Please visit it as well. We’re both very green, but we’ve met so many people on this site willing to reach out and offer advice or a guiding hand.Blessings,
Jeannie
Thanks for friend request. Intend doing a full review of Sea Stories when have read it all. So glad you like George Mackay Brown! Winter Tales just about right to revisit - along with Something Rich and Strange!
Thank you for taking the time to read "Don't Share A Cab in Peru". That you enjoyed it means a lot. Hopefully someone picks up the next piece, and the next. (I've got a long way to go before I'll have enough for a collection.)
Cheers,
Jason
Thanks for the add, Charles!! I'm looking forward to reading your books, especially The Sea Stories, as I love the sea.
