Hey Cy--
My book, A Girl Called Foote, doesn't quite fit into your "mystery/suspense/thriller or science fiction" categories-of-choice, BUT the opening scene has a little boy urinating into one of his home's many fireplaces. Does that make up for not falling into your preferred genres? ;) If so, and you can appreciate historically fictitious, coming-of-age stories then please check it out. It's free on smashwords and the Kindle version is only 99¢ at Amazon. Anyway, let me know and then I'll check out your review policy. Thanks!

[Cy]

Hi A.E,

Sure, I can appreciate a good book of another genre. Sign up as indicated in the review policy and I'll be happy to add A Girl Called Foote to the monthly drawings.

Thanks,
Cy

[A.E.]

Done! Thank you! (Cool name, by the way.)

Just reviewed Grace and Disgrace by Kayne Milhomme. A compelling plot and interesting characters make this a great read.

Cy,

My series is YA dystopian sci-fi, but since it takes place many years in the future there is some world building. Took a look at your website and you state that you aren't really interested in world building. I'd love a review but don't want to submit if it isn't something you'd be interested in reading. The name is Lake Of Sins: Escape (book 1). I'll submit if you are interested. I took a look at some of your books and they seem somewhat in line with mine (especially Eyeshine). My characters are genetically modified humans (human and animal - but they don't know it).
Look forward to hearing from you.
Linda

[Cy]

Dystopian sci-fi with some world building sounds reasonable. Go ahead and submit and I'll add Lake of Sins book 1 to the monthly drawings. It sounds like an interesting premise. Thanks! --Cy

[L.S.]

Thank you. I'll submit tomorrow.
Linda

Sounds good! I just submitted my book as requested on your page! Any current ETA for reviews based on your current work load? :) Thanks for doing this!

[Cy]

Thanks, David, looking forward to reading your work. I don't have an ETA due to the random element of choosing my next reviews (everyone gets a chance). It could be anywhere from days to (unfortunately) months. But I'll get there! (Now if only I could learn to speed read...)

[Cy]

Thanks for your interest, Ruth. Please submit as per the policy at http://www.cywyss.com/review-policy and I'll add Black Inked Pearl to the review drawings.

Would you be interested in dystopia? I would say that was a sub-genre of sci-fi =)

[L.N.]

Okay, I've just read one of the other posts on this thread, and answered my own question. I shall submit the necessary details for your consideration =)

[Cy]

Cool. Looking forward to it, L.N.

[L.N.]

I have sent over the details just this minute. I actually sent you over the files as well, by mistake. If the book doesn't appeal then just bin it =). Thank you for considering Going Underground =).
