(Review from the author)
Read 3 times. Last read October 1, 2009.
This book SUCKS. I should know, since I wrote it. Sure, some people like it. Hell, some people LOVE it. But they're mostly people I know or have paid off or threatened with physical violence or worse.
You shouldn't listen to them. You shouldn't let other people's opinions sway you in either direction. How well can you trust these reviews -- yes, even this one -- anyway?
Have you ever picked up a book because a friend raved about it? And then you hated it? And the next time you saw that person, you realized you'd lost all respect for them?
Yeah, me too. Awkward.
Anyway, my next novel should be better. You might want to try some of my short stories first. At least there's no big commitment.

You need to send me a copy or I'll fuck you up good. (Good for a change to be on the receiving end of a violent threat, huh?)
Good grief, Andrew; this is carrying humility too far! However, you are right about awkward. It can be, but that what we do, yes? Write our stuff and read others? Risk, risk,risk. Can hardly wait to read and critique.

Andy, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on a copy. I admired Sleepwalking when you serialized it. Looking forward to a bound copy. Congrats. You're hard work has paid off! -David
Andrew Dugas,On behalf of my shipmates and I,
I would like to thank you for donating your novel. You have supplied not just myself but those around me with something to read while on deployment. I will let you know that I think when I am finished.
Very Respectfully,

Thank you, April! I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for your service. Just by enlisting, you have shown remarkable courage. Here's to your safe return!Very appreciatively,
