Enthusiasm can be infectious... almost contagious. I realized this recently when readers shared their opinions of my debut novel, DUTY AND DESIRE, over social media and close friends took the time to call me on the phone and talk about how they loved the book.

I could hear it in their words, their voices, and after having been so drained myself - after a 9-year journey... to see that initial enthusiasm spark in the reader and then come full circle back to me.

What a moment, what a revelation... what a thrill to be a writer. The journey is long, lonely, hard and painful... but in the end it's worth it!

Hi,

Just when I thought I had enough trouble keeping up with social media and editing the 2nd book... a surprise comes along.

DUTY AND DESIRE is featured today on 2 blog posts and 1 online newspaper:

I'm giving away swag with both blog posts - so this is exciting!

So here i am trying to keep up with Tweets, the Olympics and editing. And I don't quite know what I'm doing at this moment... except blogging on Goodreads now.
