Thirst Release Day!
Happy Thirst-day, everyone! Eight years ago I wrote chapter one of the story that became Thirst. I was working on a dystopian story (which became Captives), but I was struggling to understand the storyworld I was trying to build. I needed an origins story.

Thanks for your Goodreads friendship, Jill!Blessings, Sally
Thanks for adding me, Jill! Happy reading and blessings to you :)
I love it, Connie. Thanks so much for entering. :-)I'm having a great time seeing all these pictures.
You're very welcome! I just entered your scavenger hunt contest, very cool idea! It was a fun experience, especially since I didn't have anything that remotely resembled one of the items, so I had to, uh, be creative. And being the only one to take the photo, well, I didn't get it all on the first try. I hope you like the photo I sent in, though!Jill wrote: "Hi, Connie! Nice to meet you.
Thanks for the kind words about By Darkness Hid. :-)

Oh my goodness! I totally just put 2 and 2 together and realized you're the author of By Darkness Hid!!!! I LOVE THAT BOOK! It's been so long since I read it, I didn't even think anything of it till I was scanning Chris Kolmorgen's blog. I've been wanting to get my hands on the rest of the series for a while, but sadly, I haven't been able to. But I definitely plan on it!
Anyway, thought I'd say "Hi" :)
Your covers are amazing. Thanks for the friendship!John
Thanks Jill for accepting my friendship invitation. Have a great weekend.
Hey Jill - thanks for the friendship!Hugs,
Jeannie
