This is a First!

Just this morning, international best-selling author friended me on goodreads and gave me 5-star ratings on 2 of my books.

Hours later, she unfriended me and removed the 5-star ratings.

Then...ANOTHER best-selling author friended me on goodreads and gave me 5-star ratings on 2 of my books, the exact 2 books as the previous one.

I didn't friend her back. The 5-star ratings are there, but for how long?

My Real Blog: http://kiss-keepitsimpleschmuck.blogs...

I started a blog here on goodreads which hardly had any visibility or interest so I removed it.

Well, you know what they say about that first tattoo? No? You gotta have more!!! Months later, with reluctance, I created another blog: http://kiss-keepitsimpleschmuck.blogs...

Since my initial post, it has been somewhat of a virtual diary where I rant, rave, bs and flap my virtual gums about life, customer service, living in the country, men, writing, relationships, customer service, neighbors, friends, customer service and my tattoos.

Surprisingly, readership has grown from 2 strong souls to over 22,000 hardy people as of February 2013. That blows me absolutely away!

So, take a peek at my blog. It's not for the faint-hearted. It's quite eclectic.

As are my books.
