Hi, I was wondering if you could list Dragon Slayer Number 9 as one of your works so that we could leave reviews? I know it's short, but every review counts and you did ask us to give you a shout out about it! I would be happy to direct readers of my review to the newsletter signup page. (And now you have made me want to check out the Eggers book, by the way.)

Hi Marzie,
Yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed Dragon Slayer Number 9. I hadn't thought about listing it on Goodreads since it's such a short story. Let me check and make sure it can be listed here (I'm not sure if there are any rules about that!). I will get back to you.
And yes! Do read Eggers' book--it's intriguing and thought-provoking. I admit I didn't like the very last, um, action taken by the protagonist. Until that moment, I really wasn't sure if he was purely stable and conflicted, or straight out mentally unstable. I felt like the final action sent it a particular direction that actually reduced the complexity and weight of the story. But still a fantastic read, highly recommended!
Update: Goodreads really prefers if we only list published "books" (and they do describe that in some detail). Right now, with only one short story, I don't think DS9 qualifies. However, if I add in a couple more stories over the year and make it an anthology, that might work quite well... :) Let me think about that a bit!
