Thank You!
A huge shout out to all who have read a pre-release copy of FAULTLINES. Thank you so much for that and for leaving a review. I'm always amazed, reading reviews, at what readers take away from the stories I've written. There is always some fresh, new insight, something I didn't see. Even when the reviews are critical, it's not that I like them, but if they're thoughtful and on point, I learn something. Mostly what I love to hear is when a story touches your heart. It's as if we've made a connection. Sometimes, reading those reviews, I get a lump in my throat. But then I can cry over a Hallmark card! Silly....
Reviews are important to other readers, too. As a reader I'll often read the best and the worst before I purchase a book. A number of bad reviews, though, seldom makes up my mind. Rather it's a balance between the two.
Did you know that Amazon decides what books will receive promotional opportunities based on reviews? The more a book has the more often it will appear on the radar screens of all our devices. So if you love an author's work and would like to keep him/her in business, leave a review! It really, truly does make a difference!
FAULTLINES releases 2 weeks from today! I can't wait to share it with the world. And if you've read it, or you do in the future, and are inclined to write a review, I would be so glad for it!

A big shout out of THANKS!!
TELL NO ONE is two weeks old today and I want to thank everyone who entered the giveaways leading up to its release day. Please let me know if you did not receive your book! Also thank you to everyone who has shelved TELL NO ONE. It helps a lot with the process of getting the book "out there".
Thank you so much too, to all of you who read advance copies and then took the time to leave a review here at Goodreads. I would love it if those of you who enjoyed the story would copy and paste your review on Amazon. Reviews there also help the book to get noticed by other readers.
Again, thank you so much for your support. I'm tossing a virtual confetti of gratitude! You guys are great! Tell No One
